When someone passes away, their estate might include property, savings, investments, and other valuable assets. Passing these on to beneficiaries can lead to tax responsibilities. PQ Global's Inheritance Taxation Course shows how inheritance tax works and how tax rules impact estates and beneficiaries.
You will learn about estate valuation, taxable assets, exemptions, tax calculations, and reporting duties. Practical examples will help you understand inheritance tax and why keeping accurate records and planning ahead matters.
The course runs for 8 weeks. It covers inheritance tax principles, estate valuation, tax calculations, reliefs, and compliance. Lessons use clear explanations and practical examples. Since tax rules vary by country, you will also learn why it’s important to check the relevant laws.
PQ Global offers face-to-face, online, and hybrid learning options. Training providers and educational institutions can use our course materials to support teaching and help learners understand inheritance taxation.
Inheritance tax rules decide if tax is due when someone dies and their estate is passed on. In some countries, the estate is taxed. In others, the person who receives the inheritance pays the tax.
An estate can include a house, savings, and investments. The person managing the estate needs to value these assets, check for exemptions, and work out any tax owed. The final tax depends on the country’s laws and the estate’s situation.
An estate contains property worth £400,000 and savings worth £100,000. The combined value is £500,000 before deducting debts or applying exemptions and reliefs.
The taxable amount depends on the tax rules, available thresholds, and the estate’s situation. This example shows why it’s important to have accurate valuations and records.
This course is ideal for accounting and finance students, tax learners, accountants, and professionals interested in estate administration. It also helps those working toward ACCA, AAT, CIMA, CPA, or other accounting or finance qualifications.
