    Ok. I thought maybe because it was a full 50% that it was a liquidation. I'll follow my heart next time. hahaha

    Here mama:

    This question did not mention anything about liquidating, therefore “partial liquidation” and “liquidating distribution” would not be correct. The distribution of $12,500 appears to be a proportionate distribution as it is 50% of the partnership's income of $25,000, so “disproportionate distribution” would not be correct. Therefore, “current distribution” is the best answer.

    A current distribution is defined as a distribution from a continuing partnership to a continuing partner.

    And yes, you should always follow your heart. lol

    Mason’s will created a testamentary trust for the benefit of Mason’s spouse. Mason’s sister and Mason’s spouse were named as co-trustees of the trust. The trust provided for discretionary principal distributions to Mason’s spouse. It also provided that, on the death of Mason’s spouse, any remaining trust property was to be distributed to Mason’s children. Part of the trust property consisted of a very valuable coin collection. After Mason’s death, which of the following statements would be correct?

    A.

    Mason’s spouse may not be a co-trustee because the spouse is also a beneficiary of the trust.

    B.

    Mason’s sister may delegate her duties as co-trustee to the spouse and thereby not be liable for the administration of the trust.

    C.

    Under no circumstances could the spouse purchase the coin collection from the trust without breaching fiduciary duties owed to the trust and Mason’s children.

    D.

    The co-trustees must use the same degree of skill, judgment, and care in managing the trust assets as reasonably prudent persons would exercise in managing their own affairs.
