This calculator shows liabilities for individuals. Assets left to surviving spouses are not subject to inheritance tax, and surviving spouses can inherit their partner's IHT allowance.
This calculator does not factor in the taper on the property allowance, which falls on estates worth more than £2m.
Some investments are not subject to inheritance in some circumstances, such as AIM shares. Speak to a financial adviser for more information.
