| I need to report the values for an alternate valuation date on 6 treasury bills totalling approx $1.5 million. All of them will have matured during the 6 months from the date of death to the alternate date 6 months later. Most (but not all) have been rolled into new purchases at the maturity dates. For the date of death, I am reporting the discounted purchase price plus accrued interest as the value. What amounts should be reported for the alternate date: (1) Maturity value (face amount); (2) Maturity value plus additional accrued interest; or (3) same as date of death value? Please advise. Many thanks. Susan

You should use the date of death values for your alternate valuation date. Assets whose value changes with the passage of time - CDs, EE bonds, etc are not revalued for alternate valuation purposes. Treasury bills are slightly different but I don't think that they differ enough for you to obtain a new value.
