Estimate a published state schedule
The free result includes the estimate, tier breakdown, source, and caveats. No email is required.
Before you use the estimate
These schedules do not all use the same definition of value. The explanations below are rendered with the same source records consumed by the calculator.
California
California Probate Code § 10800
Input basis: Estimated estate value used for the statutory compensation calculation
California's schedule uses the value accounted for by the personal representative, including the statutory appraisal/gains/receipts and losses basis. It is not simply the inheritance received by beneficiaries.
California published schedule tiers| Tier | Rate |
|---|
| $0 to $100,000 | 4% |
|---|
| $100,000 to $200,000 | 3% |
|---|
| $200,000 to $1,000,000 | 2% |
|---|
| $1,000,000 to $10,000,000 | 1% |
|---|
| $10,000,000 to $25,000,000 | 0.5% |
|---|
| Above $25,000,000 | Court-determined |

Florida Statutes § 733.617

|---|
| $1,000,000 to $5,000,000 | 2.5% |

New York
New York Surrogate's Court Procedure Act § 2307
Input basis: Amount received and paid out for purposes of this simplified commission estimate
New York's commission schedule is based on sums received and paid out. This simplified input is not a generic gross-estate-value calculation.
New York published schedule tiers| Tier | Rate |

|---|
| $100,000 to $300,000 | 4% |
