4 Planned Giving What is a Gift - four conditions: Transfer of property (not services) to charity; and Transfer must be voluntary; and No benefit to donor, or someone selected by the donor. Must be accepted by the charity.

5 FMV exceeds the Advantage received by donor Advantage is: any consideration received by the taxpayer Or any person related to the taxpayer; Eligible Amount = FMV of contribution less Advantage Amount that can be claimed for tax relief What is a Gift: Planned Giving

6 Advantage to a Donor: Any property, service, compensation, use or other benefit that the taxpayer, or a person or partnership not at arm's length, has received, obtained, or enjoyed, or is entitled, either immediately or in the future and whether absolutely or contingently, to receive, obtain or enjoy. Planned Giving

7 Donations generate tax savings (tax credits) For example, Manitoba tax credit = 46% A $10,000 cash donation = $4,600 tax saved 75% of net income in year of gift + 5 years 100% NI in year of death and previous year Companies use 75% of income Operating vs Holding companies Taxable income means nothing!

8 Planned Giving Charities must spend all of their resources on charitable activities (80%) Fundraising, some administration, political activities, etc. are not charitable activities Disbursement quota – Revised March 4, 2010 Opportunity for Advisors to lock accounts into private foundations

10 Planned Giving Disbursement Quota (DQ) Previously 80% of receipted value + 3.5% of the FMV of assets not used for charitable activities or administration. Now, just 3.5% rule. Donors can make gifts today that used to have to wait until death = planning opportunities.
