However, we do note that equalisation can be shaped in two ways. The first idea that comes to mind is that parents should share in the children's exemption and rate. But when the (lower) exemption and the (higher) rate of the parents are applied to the acquisition by the children, the two situations are of course equalised.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>De laatste dagen is er veel aandacht voor het verschil in belastingheffing wanneer kinderen hun ouders schenken ten opzichte van ouders die hun kinderen schenken.
