Jacoba Brink is a currently a very successful website developer. Previously, she worked at Microsoft, and when she left there she made quite a bit of money on her stock options. About 10 years ago, she transferred a large group of investments into a trust in favour of her two children. The fiscal year of the trust ends on December 31 and Ms. Brink has no beneficial interest in either the income or the capital of the trust.

Under the terms of the trust, her daughter Kara receives 40 percent of all the income and her other daughter Tatiana receives 35 percent of this income. Kara is aged 32 and Tatiana is 28. Both children are single and have no current sources of income other than the trust.

The undistributed income accumulates within the trust, to be paid out to the daughters at the time of death of Ms. Brink.

The income figures for the year ending December 31, 20XX, are as follows:

Interest income on GICs

$250,000

Eligible dividends from Canadian corporations

590,000

Revenue from rental property

84,000

Cash expenses on rental property

30,000

The rental property was sold on October 1, 20XX for $1.5 million. 80 percent of the sales price was allocated to the building and 20 percent to the land. The original cost of the apartment building was $1 million dollars with the same allocations. The apartment building had been transferred into the trust when it was established and the UCC of the building is $627,000. This is the first disposition of capital property by the trust since it was established.
