    1. Barry and Mary can gift each of their children $28,000

    2. Barry and Mary can gift each of their children $28,000

    3. Amount removed = $140,000

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The total amount per year that can be gifted without reporting to IRS or paying any taxes is $14,000

    1. So, each child can get $14,000 from Barry and $14,000 from Mary which totals to $28,000 per child

    2. Each grandchild can get $14,000 from Barry and $14,000 from Mary which totals to $28,000 per child.

    3. Total amount of estate removed from Barry and Mary = Total gifts to their children and grandchildren

    Estate removed = Gift to 2 children + Gift to 3 children

    Estate Removed = 2 * $28000 + 3 * $28000

    Estate Removed = $56000 + $84000

    Estate Removed = $140,000 per year
