202.4 The taxable value of life interest in any property shall be determined by multiplying five percent (5%) of the market value of the property (as of date of death of decedent) from which the life interest is to accrue, by the figure shown opposite the age of the beneficiary in the American Experience Table of Mortality in § 202.6.
202.5 The taxable value of an annuity for life shall be multiplied by the appropriate figure in the same table, instead of five percent (5%) of the value of the property from which the annuity accrues. If payments under an annuity are to be made more often than once each year, the aggregate of those payments per year shall be considered the annuity payment for purposes of determining the taxable value.
