What is the tax ramification on a 122000 gift of equity?

Under US tax law, your lifetime federal gift tax exemption would be depleted by the amount of the gift in excess of the annual limit to one person. If the annual limit is, say, $12,000, and you give the equity to an individual, you would lose 110,000 from your $1.2 million-dollar gift tax exemption (or whatever it is when you die and your estate is distributed to non-charitable beneficiaries), not including gifts to a surviving spouse (which are estate tax-free). You could reduce the loss of exemption by giving the equity to more than one person, or spreading it over multiple years.
