What Is the IRS Discount Rate?

Also known as the AFR or Applicable Federal Rate, the IRS discount rate is part of the calculation used to determine the charitable deduction for many types of planned gifts, such as charitable remainder trusts and gift annuities. The rate is the annual rate of return that the IRS assumes the gift assets will earn during the gift term.

Depending on the type of planned gift made, the discount rate may have significant, little, or no effect on the deduction calculated. Understanding the influence of the discount rate on the deduction earned by each kind of planned gift will allow you to choose the best rate in each case.  PGCalc.com
