A. A tax required to be paid by a trustee based on receipts allocated to income

B. A tax required to be paid by a trustee based on receipts allocated to principal
must be paid from principal, even if the tax is called an income tax by the taxing
authority.


C. A tax required to be paid by a trustee on the trust's share of an entity's
taxable income must be paid:


1. From income to the extent that receipts from the entity are allocated to income.


2. From principal to the extent that receipts from the entity are allocated only to
principal.


3. Proportionately from principal and income to the extent that receipts from the
entity are allocated to both income and principal.


4. From principal to the extent that the tax exceeds the total receipts from the
entity.


D. After applying subsections A, B and C, the trustee shall adjust income or
principal receipts to the extent that the trust's taxes are reduced because the trust
receives a deduction for payments made to a beneficiary.
