Charitable Gift Annuity Illustration

Dr. and Mrs. Jones, ages 68 and 65, are interested in providing scholarship support at the Mailman School. They have $100,000 in securities, originally purchased for $75,000, for which they would like to receive income as well as a tax deduction. With this asset, they can create the Jones Scholarship Fund by establishing a charitable gift annuity, which will yield the following benefits:

  • An immediate income tax deduction in the year of the gift of $34,467
  • Guaranteed income payments, every year for life, of $6,600 (of which, more than $2,000 will be tax-free)
  • No capital gains tax on the appreciated securities and,
  • An eventual gift of principal to the Jones Scholarship Fund projected to exceed $250,000.
