ote: This problem is for the 2020 tax year.

Prepare the 2020 fiduciary income tax return (Form 1041) for the Blue Trust. Complete the computational template for applying the five-step procedure and Form 1041 for the entity. In addition, determine the amount and character of the income and expense items that each beneficiary must report for the year, and prepare a Schedule K1 for Betty Blue. Omit all alternative minimum tax computations. The year's activities of the trust include the following.

Dividend income, all U.S. stocks $50,000
Taxable interest income 10,000
Tax-exempt interest income 15,000
Trustee's fees 4,000

The trust and Betty both use the calendar tax year. Under the terms of the trust instrument, administrative fees are allocated to income. The trustee must distribute all of the entity's accounting income to Betty Blue by February 15 of the following year. The trustee followed this charge and made no other distributions during the year. Administrative fees were assigned properly as an offset to taxable interest income.

The trust was created on July 8, 2000. There are no tax credits for the year, and none of the entity's income was derived from a personal services contract. Blue has no economic interest in any foreign trust, and it is not subject to the AMT. Its Federal identification number is 11-1111121.

The trustee, Hoover State Federal Bank, is located at 49599 Cold Harbor Boulevard, Mountain Brook, AL 35223. Betty lives at 67671 Crestline Road, Birmingham, AL 35212. Her Social Security number is 123-45-6788.
