Simpson Family Trust derived a net income of $40,000 during the 2020/21 tax year. The trust deed provided trust income was to be distributed as follows:

Bill (25 years old, bankrupt) 70 % of any income

Daphne (17 years old daughter, she is a full-time student) 20% of any income

The trust deed also provides that the balance may be either retained or distributed to the beneficiary at the discretion of the trustee.

The name of the beneficiary; whether or not the beneficiary is presently entitled; whether or not the beneficiary is under a legal disability; which sections of the ITAA apply to make the income assessable; who is assessed on each amount; and tax rate applicable to each amount.
