State of Oregon Bond | $4,000,000 |
Ogami Inc stock | $1,200,000 |
Poultry Prize Inc stock | $800,000 |
Promissory note from cousin Bill | $1,000,000 |
Burial plot for self, wife and kids | $10,000 |
In September the personal representative of Mildred's estate received $80,000 of interest on the State of Oregon bond ($60,000 accrued prior to Mildred's death); $20,000 cash dividend on Ogami Inc stock (record date August 6th); and $12,000 dividend on Poultry Prize Inc stock (record date August 3th). Mildred's will contained a clause stating that if Bill owed her any money on the promissory note when she died, the balance of the note would be forgiven. Also, Mildred owned a Roth IRA at her death worth $2,800,000 at her death. Over her life she made taxable contributions to the IRA totaling $200,000.
