Solution

The answer is a. I only.

Here's why:

I. Life insurance on the life of Elizia, appointing her sister as the irrevocable beneficiary. - This is exempted from estate tax because the beneficiary is irrevocable. This means that the policy owner, Elizia, cannot change the beneficiary without the consent of the current beneficiary, her sister. Therefore, the proceeds of the policy are not part of Elizia's estate and are not subject to estate tax.

II. Life insurance on the life of Elizia, appointing her brother as the revocable beneficiary. - This is not exempted from estate tax because the beneficiary is revocable. This means that Elizia can change the beneficiary at any time without the consent of the current beneficiary, her brother.
