Summary: America Gives More Act of 2014 - Amends the Internal Revenue Code to: (1) make permanent the enhanced tax deduction for charitable contributions of food inventory. (2) increase from 10 to 15 of the aggregate net income of taxpayers other than C corporationsnbsp. The amount of deductible food inventory contributions which such taxpayers may make in any taxable year. (3) permit a taxpayer who is not required to account for inventories or capitalize indirect costs, to elect, solely for purposes of computing the amount of the deduction, to treat the basis of any apparently wholesome food nbsp. As equal to 25 of the fair market value of such food. And (4) set forth a formula for determining the fair market value of such food. Makes permanent: (1) tax-free distributions from individual retirement accounts (IRAs) for charitable purposes, and (2) the tax deduction for charitable contributions by individuals and corporations of real property interests for conservation purposes. Allows taxpayers to treat a charitable contribution made after the close of the taxable year but before the due date of the tax return as being made in such taxable year. Reduces from 2 to 1 the excise tax rate on the net investment income of tax-exempt private foundations. Repeals the 1 reduction in such tax rate for private foundations that meet certain distribution requirements. Prohibits the entry of the budgetary effects of this Act on any PAYGO (pay-as-you-go) scorecard.
