Diane died on January 15 of the current year. Her estate elected a November 30 year end. The executor projects that the estate will receive interest income of $50,000 by November 30 and will have no other gross income. In addition, it will have no deductions other than the personal exemption. The beneficiary of the state is Dan, a calendar year taxpayer who is projected to have $195,000 of taxable income in the current year, not including any distributions from the estate. Compare the overall tax costs for the estate and Dan if (1) the executor distributes $37,250 to DAN prior to November 30 and (2) the estate makes no distributions before November 30. Dan is unmarried and files as a single taxpayer.
