All the following statements concerning the tax implications of a gift made to a person who dies within one year of receipt of the gift are correct EXCEPT:
A. If the property is willed back to the original donor, such property is denied the usual stepped-up basis for valuing property transferred to a designated heir.
B. The beneficiary of the deceased’s will can be in receipt of capital gains, even if he or she sells the property on the date of the testator’s death.
C. If the decedent wills the property to someone other than the original owner or his or her spouse, the transferee can have the benefit of the stepped-up basis.
D. If the original donor is the spouse of the decedent-donee, a testamentary disposition to the decedent’s children will prevent realization of the benefits of the stepped-up basis.
