Starting in 2002, many states decoupled their estate taxes from the federal system by choosing to apply their own estate tax regardless of the availability of a federal estate tax credit.  DecoupleCruncher is the solution to crunching the numbers in cases where client property is located in one or more decoupled or quasi-decoupled states.  The program allows for the completion of hundreds of computations, many with interrelated variables, in a matter of seconds.
