Detailed explanation-1: -The net assets subject to taxation equal the person’s total assets minus liabilities and minus the prescribed tax-deductible portion of assets left behind by the deceased that cross some minimum threshold, below which no estate tax is levied.

Detailed explanation-3: -Generally, the Gross Estate does not include property owned solely by the decedent’s spouse or other individuals.
