contribution deduction is reduced because a fiduciary deducts an amount paid from
principal for income tax purposes instead of deducting it for estate tax purposes, and
as a result estate taxes paid from principal are increased and income taxes paid by an
estate, trust, or beneficiary are decreased, each estate, trust, or beneficiary that
benefits from the decrease in income tax shall reimburse the principal from which the
increase in estate tax is paid.
(2) The total reimbursement must equal the increase in the estate
tax to the extent that the principal used to pay the increase would have qualified for
a marital deduction or charitable contribution deduction but for the payment.
(3) The proportionate share of the reimbursement for each estate,
trust, or beneficiary whose income taxes are reduced must be the same as its
proportionate share of the total decrease in income tax. An estate or trust shall
reimburse principal from income.
SECTION 2. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That this Act applies to each
trust or decedent's estate existing on or after the effective date of this Act.
SECTION 3. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That this Act shall take
effect October 1, 2002.
Approved May 16, 2002.
