Answer: $54000

Step-by-step explanation:

A gift is a proceed gotten from a generosity. It should be noted that gift up to the amount of $14000 is exempt from the gift tax.

Therefore, since the ring is a family heirloom valued at $68,000, we deduct $14000 from it to get the amount of the taxable gift which will be:

= $68000 - $14000

= $54000
