Estate Tax Calculator

This calculator is provided by a third-party not affiliated with Merrill or any of its affiliates. It is provided for general educational purposes only. The analysis generated by the calculator is based on information you provide and a variety of assumptions, which may include assumptions and projections about inflation rates, and account growth. Such assumptions and projections, as well as the report generated on the basis of such assumptions and projections, in no way are intended to predict or guarantee future inflation rates and investment performance of your investment. The accuracy of the analysis is dependent on the accuracy of such assumptions and projections. On calculators which require you to select an anticipated investment return, consideration should be given to factors affecting your potential return such as investment objectives, risk tolerance, and the time horizon for the investment. You should enter figures that are appropriate to your individual situation. As a result your actual experience is likely to vary, in some cases significantly, from the potential results suggested by the analysis.
