Solution

The amount to be included in the gross estate of Lisa for estate tax purposes is Php 600, 000. This is because, for estate tax purposes, the property is valued at its fair market value at the time of death, regardless of the amount for which it was sold. Since the property was sold to Enrique but the transfer of ownership was to occur after Lisa's death, it is still considered part of her estate. Therefore, the correct answer is a. Php 600, 000.
