General Procedures
Overview The following are general guidelines that will help assure that your returns are processed accurately, swiftly, and at a lower cost to you. Failure to follow these general guidelines may, in some cases, result in extra processing charges. Where such charges apply, they are noted in the instructions. We strongly recommend that all users take a few moments to review this section before preparing a return.
Entering Return Information Before you begin to prepare a return, take a moment to familiarize yourself with some of the procedures that should be used when entering certain types of data. Whether you enter data onto printed input forms or directly into a computer, you should familiarize yourself with these procedures. Print legibly, do not use cursive handwriting.
Input Forms ExacTax has designed special versions of the most commonly used ExacTax input forms to facilitate ease of use for service bureau clients. These forms can be used in conjunction with the other ExacTax® forms to submit all input to ExacTax.
For quick referral and organization purposes, a number has been assigned to each of the forms using the following numerical ranges:
Forms Type 1 - 19 General Information 20 - 49 Income 50 – 59 Depreciation 60 – 69 Adjustments to Income70 - 79 Itemized Deductions 80 - 84 Credits 85 - 89 Taxes 90 - 99 Other
These numbers are intended to make it easier for the preparer to locate forms but they are not part of the ExacTax® system. The actual ExacTax® form (or form) name is printed within a bold box in the upper left-hand corner, such as 1040 on the General Information form [1]. In some cases ExacTax has combined two or more separate ExacTax® forms into a single ExacTax form. On these input forms a bold box will surround the ExacTax® form name at the beginning of each new form section. See Input Form Rent [31] with sections for Rent-2 and StCO. When making telephone re-run changes, you must refer to the form name, activity unit (when applicable), section and box or field that you are changing.
T/S/J Fields Enter "T" for taxpayer, "S" for spouse, or "J" for joint. This code box is used to indicate that an entry or form should be allocated to the taxpayer, the spouse, or should be split evenly between the two. This type of code box is only for use with married filing joint returns, and when a T/S/J code box is left blank, the system will assume that the entry or form should be allocated to the taxpayer.
For example, enter an "S" in Code Box 2 of Input Form 2106 [72] to indicate that the spouse's name should be printed on Form 2106.
Check Boxes Enter a check mark or an "X" in the box denoted with the check symbol. For example, check Box 14 on Input Form 1040 [1] to indicate that the taxpayer is legally blind.
Dates There are generally two types of date code boxes: six-digit dates (mmddyy) and eight-digit dates (mmddyyyy). The format is normally indicated as part of the box description. You must always enter all six digits or eight digits. To print the word "VARIOUS" on a government form where a date is required, enter the letter “V” in the date field. Various cannot be used to replace all date fields; some fields require a date (ie. date acquired on depreciation).
2016 Fiduciary Manual
15
For example, in Box 12 on Input Form 8283P1 [73A], you would enter January 1, 2010 as 01 01 09, or enter a “V” for “Various” anywhere in the date field.
Percentage Entries When a percentage is required in an input field, the field description will indicate the maximum number of digits allowable before and after the decimal point, such as xxx.xxxx. All places to the right of the decimal must be filled in. For example, valid entries would be 83.7500, 20.24 and 33.33. One hundred percent should be entered as 100. All places to the right of the decimal point will be zero filled when an amount is not entered.
Alpha or Text Information A text or "alpha" code box will denote the maximum number of characters (a character consists of a letter, number, punctuation mark or a space) that it can accept with a number in parentheses. For example, the street address in Box 41 on Input Form 1040 can be a maximum of 35 characters, and the code box description is "Address (35)". If the entry exceeds the code box capacity, the entry will be truncated when the return prints.
Descriptions Never change, whiteout or tape over any of the preprinted code box descriptions that are printed on an input form. ExacTax uses the code box number to identify your written data, not the code box description.
Coded Areas vs. Shaded Areas Only data entered in code boxes is used in the calculation of the return. Any notes or entries made in the shaded areas of an input form are for accountant notes and do not become a part of the return.
Always Use a Pencil We require that you print legibly using a #2 soft lead pencil. Never type entries or use ink on the computer-generated input forms. A procedure charge will apply for typed or ink entries.
Do Not Enter Pennies or Cents When entering amount fields, always enter a whole dollar amounts. A procedure charge will apply if fractional dollar amounts are used anywhere in the return.
Decimals and Commas Do not use decimals or commas when entering amounts. Only enter decimals where specified.
Illegible Entries Poorly written or illegible forms may be subject to a “No free rerun” status. This will be denoted in the Notes to Accountant on the Form PI.
Do Not Staple Input Forms Paper clip all schedules, statements and W-2 envelopes to the left center behind the Input Forms. Do not staple anything together, including W-2's. Procedure charges will apply if staples are used.
Input Form Assembly We suggest that you keep a copy of all input forms, source documents and supporting schedules that you send to ExacTax for processing. This can be helpful if we need to contact you to clarify data while the return is still in process. When submitting input forms to ExacTax, assemble and paper clip the input forms, source documents and supporting schedules as follows:
1. Input Form PI (Never copy or alter the Form PI or use a proforma from another return. This form uses a unique log number for each return and can never be duplicated without destroying the integrity of the original proformaed tax return data assigned to that log number.) Two procedure charges will apply for any copied, altered or invalid Form PI.
2. Client Properties (if needed for additional states)
3. Input Forms in numerical order except for sub-form input forms (i.e. depreciation or Keogh) which are placed immediately after the applicable schedule to which they relate (i.e. Business, Rental, K-1).
4. Other forms or supporting schedules to be copied and attached to the return.
5. The federal and state copies (only copies B and 2) of Form W-2, enclosed in an envelope. (Put your accountant number on the back of each W-2).
Note: A return sent without a Form PI or a copied or altered Form PI or using a proforma from another return will be subject two procedure charges.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
16
Do not send any unnecessary supporting documents such as 1099's, medical bills or escrow papers. All documents submitted must be letter size (8 1/2" x 11") and printed on one side only.
W2s and Attachments Send only the Federal (copy B) and state copies (copy 2) of Form W-2. If the "B" or state copy is not available and you are submitting another copy, mark it "B" or "state" copy. Never send copy "C" to ExacTax. Do not staple W-2 forms together. All items attached to the input forms MUST have your account number clearly written on them. You can write on the back side. For W2 forms, write your number on the outside of the envelope containing the W2s. Attachments for photocopying must have your account number written on each page. If these items should become separated and have no identification we may not be able to associate it to the correct return.
Deleting Proforma Pages Never remove an input form with proforma data on it. Pre-printed data is in the input file and to remove it the item must be deleted by the data entry operator. If you discard the form or cover over the item, our operator will not delete the information. Just cross out the input form with a red pencil.
Helpful hints for processing an accurate and complete return The following are general guidelines that will help assure that your returns are processed accurately, swiftly, and at a lower cost to you. Failure to follow these general guidelines may, in some cases, result in extra procedure charges. Where such charges apply, they are noted in the “Notes to Accountant” section of Form PI.
Make sure all forms are filled in completely and accurately.
Paper clip all schedules, statements and W-2 envelopes to the left center behind the Input Forms. Do not staple anything together, including input forms and W-2's.
Write dark enough so your entries can easily be seen by the Data Entry operator.
We require that you use a #2 pencil. If you are using a mechanical pencil we recommend using .07 lead.
Enter a check mark or an "X" in the box denoted with the check symbol . For example, check Box 14 on Input Form 1040 [1] to indicate that the taxpayer is legally blind.
Erased items should not be blurred or darkened out from erasure – make sure to completely erase errors and clearly write corrections.
Make sure Taxpayer Social Security Number on Form PI is the same as the Taxpayer Social Security Number on Form 1.
When deleting a line item use a red pencil to cross it out completely and clearly.
When deleting an entire form or form section use a red pencil to place an “X” through the entire form or section.
Make sure state(s) are indicated with residency status on Form PI.
Make sure processing options (Form PI) are filled in completely (i.e. special shipping instructions, expedite service, following year Tax Organizer request, etc).
When processing a proformaed return submit all of the input forms with proforma data that were originally sent to you. For deleting data or forms, see above.
Make sure depreciation input forms are placed immediately after the applicable schedule to which they relate (i.e. Business, Rental, K-1).
For any auto expense Total miles and the Business miles must be entered to have ExacTax compute the business use percentage.
Express Mail to ExacTax When sending packages to ExacTax via Express Mail, DO NOT send it to our PO Box; this will delay delivery by two days. Always send Express Mail to our street address: 1100 E Orangethorpe Ave., Suite 100, Anaheim, CA 92801
Correcting a return Free Reruns
2016 Fiduciary Manual
17
1040 reruns that are called in to the Telephone Rerun Department, or sent back to us for reprocessing by February 28, 2017 will be rerun at no additional charge. These reruns will only be free of charge if they reach ExacTax by February 28, 2017. This does not apply to RDE Processing.
Telephone Rerun Hotline
(844) 327-6740 or (714) 284-4802
Reruns after February 28, 2017 If an error is made by ExacTax in the processing of a return, any changes necessary to correct that error will be made at no charge. This applies to both Individual and Business returns. If rerunning a return due to an ExacTax error results in creating new billable forms/schedules, the applicable fee will be billed for those forms/schedules. If, in the process of doing a rerun to correct an ExacTax error, the preparer wishes to make additional corrections/changes other than the change to correct the error, the rerun will then become billable.
Billable Reruns Reruns to make preparer additions or corrections to returns are billable. If processing a billable rerun results in creating new billable forms/schedules (i.e. additional state/city return), the additional fee will be billed.
If you have received a completed return from ExacTax and need to make changes to the return, you may make these changes by telephone. Changes can only be made to computer Input Forms. Any changes to manual statements are the responsibility of the accountant.
There is a charge for a telephone rerun per 10 changes with a maximum of 30 changes. If you need to make more than 30 changes, you must send the return back for reprocessing. Attach a note to the return stating that it is an accountant rerun and indicate the changes or tell us if it is to be completely repunched.
1040 reruns are billable at $11.30 per 10 changes with a maximum of 30 changes.
Business reruns are billed at $24.00 (up to 20 partners or 15 changes), over 20 (40% of return fee)
Have the following information available when calling the Telephone Rerun Hotline:
Your ExacTax account number.
Method of shipment for the rerun, if different from the original return.
The number of changes you are going to make (limit 30).
The ExacTax log number shown on the top of Input Form PI.
Your client's last name.
The changes desired, indicating the input form, activity unit number, section and zip box numbers of any entries to be added, changed or deleted. Be sure to indicate a page or overflow number, if applicable. The person who is authorizing the changes.
Note: Telephone Rerun personnel are not trained to answer your input and technical questions. If you have questions regarding those areas, call Customer Support before calling in a Telephone Rerun.
Quality Control Billable Rerun Input forms that are submitted with incomplete information may lead to a Quality Control rerun billable at $10.95 ($22.00 for business returns) in order to generate an accurate return.
Words and numbers on input forms should not be subject to interpretation by ExacTax’s Data Entry operators. Poorly written or illegible forms will be photocopied as evidence and a record of the log number will be noted for the return. If a subsequent call is made by the preparer to make a correction to this return, it will be a billable rerun.
Input forms that are submitted with incomplete information may lead to a billable rerun to generate an accurate return. ExacTax will make all attempts to contact the preparer to get the information necessary to generate an accurate and complete return. If after two (2) business days, no contact can be established with the preparer, the return will be processed as is, or if unable to be processed it will be returned to the preparer. A record of the log number will be noted for this return. If a subsequent call is made by the preparer to make a correction to this return, it will be a billable rerun.
Reruns with Special Handling
2016 Fiduciary Manual
18
When special handling instructions, such as expedited processing, special shipping or a different shipping address, are entered on Input Form PI they remain in effect each time the return is reprocessed. Customer Support will normally reconfirm these items when entering a rerun. However it is the caller’s responsibility to confirm any changes to the original entries are made.
Changing a Return in Process
If you find it necessary to change a return after you have submitted your input forms but before you receive the completed return, call the Customer Support Department, not the Telephone Rerun Department. Have the following information available:
Your ExacTax account number.
Your firm name and telephone number.
Your client's name.
The changes needed, indicating the input form, activity unit number, section and zip box number and the entry. Also, indicate a page or overflow number, if applicable.
The person authorizing the change.
The date the input forms were sent to ExacTax and the method of shipment.
If the return is located before it has been processed, the change will be made and a procedure charge will be applied. If the return has already been processed, a rerun charge will apply.
Procedure Charges In addition to those noted previously, procedure charges per procedure will apply if:
It is necessary for ExacTax to complete an input sheet because an incorrect or incomplete form was submitted. Two procedure charges will apply per form.
If a proforma input form from another return is submitted. Procedure charges for each form submitted.
ExacTax must call you for additional information on a return. Procedure charges will apply per form.
Mail is received from your office with postage due a procedure charge will apply.
If it is necessary for ExacTax to add an input sheet to complete a return. Two procedure charges will apply per form.
Procedure charges will apply if it is necessary for ExacTax to contact the preparer to complete an input sheet.

Billing Queries and Reminders When requesting adjustments to your billing, state the problem in the comment section of your remittance and include it with your payment.

Input Form PI - Processing Information Input Form PI is required for every return, and contains processing instructions for the return including the state or city to be processed, the residency status, as well as other data vital to the return. Be sure the following is entered on every Form PI:
Accountant's name and ExacTax account number
Taxpayer's name, Social Security number
Additional services desired (i.e. Tax Organizer, expedite, special handling, etc.)
Form PI allows processing of up to three states. When processing more than three states, attach Input Form Client Properties for that entity after Form PI and indicate the additional state returns to be processed. For part-year and non-resident returns you will generally need to attach specific state input forms to report the required information.
If you have a special situation or item that needs attention you may enter a “Note to ExacTax” in the designated section.
Certain comments relating to return data may be printed in the “Notes to Accountant” area to alert you to items that may require attention. Check this area also for comments about items specific to that return when you receive the return back.
Never copy or alter the Form PI or use a proforma from another return. This form uses a unique log number for each return and can never be duplicated without destroying the integrity of the original proformaed tax return data assigned to that log number. Two procedure charges will apply for a copied, altered or invalid Form PI.
Special Handling Code Enter the code for "Special Handling" on Form PI under Processing Options, if you want the return to be shipped by a different method other than normal. If using Hold for Pickup (code "1") and you want to verify that the return is ready, the best time to call Customer Support is after 3:00 p.m.
Shipping Options and Rates* UPS Ground will remain the standard method of shipping returns back to our non-courier customers. There is a $4.90 per return shipping charge, ($6.40) per-return for delivery points classified by UPS as ‘residential’), added to your normal processing fee for all returns shipped via UPS. To utilize this method of delivery, your shipping address must be a street address; a P.O. Box address is not acceptable.
Selecting UPS enhanced shipping or other options will incur the following per-return charges:
Code Shipping Method Per Return Charge** Blank Regular UPS See Above* 1 Hold for Pick-up No Charge 3 UPS Next Day – 10:30 AM Guarantee $42.70 4 UPS 2nd Day $19.20 6 Regular US Mail $8.32 7 Call When Ready $4.00 8 UPS Next Day – 3:00 PM Guarantee $29.25 33 UPS Next Day Saturday $57.50 Zip 11 Confidential Handling $3.00 Zip 22 Special Shipping Address $4.00 Zip 26 Special Handling Instruction $4.00
**Prices subject to change.
Note: ExacTax does not give credit for UPS or free shipping when a package is misplaced by UPS.
Undeliverable Packages
The additional charge for an undeliverable UPS package (to any address) is $7.00.
Hold for Pick-Up
There is no additional charge for returns marked as “Hold for pick-up” at ExacTax. However, returns that are not initially marked as “Hold for pick-up” on Form PI and are subsequently picked-up will still be billed the shipping charge, if any, assigned to that return.
Note: Returns that are designated to be delivered by courier do not incur a default shipping charge when picked up at ExacTax.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
22
Reruns with Special Handling When special handling instructions, such as expedited processing, special shipping or a different shipping address, are entered on Input Form PI they remain in effect each time the return is reprocessed. Customer Support will normally reconfirm these items when entering a rerun. However it is the caller’s responsibility to confirm any changes to the original entries are made.
Expedite Service In general, this service is for a return where the preparer is requesting guaranteed one day turnaround time. By checking Form PI - Box #3, you will indicate your request to receive this preferential expedited processing service for an additional charge of $23.00 per Individual and $33.00 per Business return. Any return received and scanned in our Anaheim office by 12:30 pm will be ready for shipment, by your indicated method, the following business day by 4:30 pm.
Expedite Requirements
Mark “EXPEDITE” on the outside of envelopes containing at least one return marked for Expedite. Envelopes not marked “Expedite” may not be processed as expeditiously.
If the envelope is marked “EXPEDITE” and no return is marked for Expedite, all returns in the envelope will be treated as Expedite and billed accordingly.
Be sure to clearly mark the Expedite Box 3 on Form PI
► NOTE: Returns indicated for Expedite service are subject to output review in our Error Control Department and maybe delayed. If you do not want the return to be reviewed in ExacTax Error Control Department check box 42 on Form PI. Additionally, Expedite service does not include any special return delivery shipping (i.e. overnight/express delivery). Special return delivery must be indicated on Form PI - Box #2.
Bypass error control Check box 42, if you do not want the return to be reviewed in ExacTax Error Control Department. If you check this box, the return will not be eligible for a free rerun for any ExacTax error.
Bypass PRR review Check box 43, if you do not want ExacTax to stop this return with any difference on the Form PRR or the State PRR (i.e. Form CAPRR).
Tax Organizers Enter “1” in box 4 to have ExacTax prepare a Tax Organizer for the following year. The Organizer is a booklet containing selected information and amounts from the prior year’s return that allows the client to enter current year information and amounts. Enter “2” to turn this feature off. The Tax Organizers are normally shipped at the end of November.
Number of extra copies Enter the number of additional copies of the return desired in box 5. The basic package includes 3 copies of the Federal and state returns (Filing copy, Accountant’s copy, Client’s copy).
K-1 Filing Instructions Check box 7 to a request a copy of the Federal K-1 filing instructions to be collated with the partner’s copy of the Schedule K-1. The instructions will be provided for each partner in the partnership.
K-1 Labels Check box 8 to receive 2 mailing labels per shareholder.
Financial Statements Check box 9 on Form PI to generate Financial Statements to be included with the tax return. Additional Financial Statement options including the statement of cash flows may be found on Input Form 7. Two copies of the Financial Statement are provided. One will be bound and one will be unbound.
Beneficiary Labels Check box 10 to receive 2 mailing labels per beneficiary.
Confidential ExacTax will ship a confidential return (including organizer, proforma or financial statement) in a special envelope marked “Confidential” in red.

Form [1] - Fiduciary, Estate, Trust, General, Year End
Overview
Use this form to enter information for the estate or trust, the fiduciary, and other general information. ExacTax uses this information to calculate depreciation and complete Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227.
Identification Information
Use this section to enter demographic information about the estate or trust and the fiduciary.
Estate / trust: Employer identification number
If this field is blank, enter the employer identification number (EIN) for the estate or trust. ExacTax updates the EIN / SSN field.
Estate / trust: Name / Name, continued
Enter the name of the estate or trust in these fields. Note that ExacTax does not wrap the lines for data entry; these are two separate fields.
Estate / trust: Name changed
Enter X if the name of the estate or trust changed during the year.
Estate / trust: Family name for electronic filing name control
If electronically filing this return, enter the family name of the estate or trust. ExacTax uses this information to calculate the name control for the electronic file.
The IRS determines the name control differently depending on how the Employer Identification Number (EIN) of the estate or trust was obtained.
If an internet application was used to request the EIN, the name control should be derived from the first four characters of the name of the estate or trust. For example, for the Homer J. Maple Estate, enter Maple in the field.

26

Note: If there is more than one fiduciary for this return, enter in these fields the information for the fiduciary that is responsible for signing Form 1041. Use the Fiduciary: Joint fiduciary information field in this section to enter information for the other fiduciaries.
Fiduciary: Joint fiduciary information
If there is more than one fiduciary for the return, enter the name and address information for the additional fiduciaries. ExacTax prints a statement with the return in accordance with Regulation 1.6012-3(c) and lists the joint fiduciaries with space for signatures, if desired.
Fiduciary: Financial institution

Note: Per Revenue Ruling 68-500, a facsimile signature may be used only on Form 1041; therefore, the facsimile signature does not print on any other form that requires a signature, such as Forms 56, 1041-A, 1041-QFT, and 5227.
Date for signature line
To have ExacTax print a date on the signature line of Form 1041, 1041-A, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227 enter the date in this field. If this field is blank, a date does not print.

Estate / Trust Information
Use this section to enter basic information for the estate or trust. ExacTax uses much of this information throughout the return.
Type of entity
Use the fieldview to select a return type. The following describes options and how they are used for processing the return. If the field is blank, ExacTax defaults the type of entity to a simple trust.

For the ESBT and qualified subchapter S trust entity types, all income amounts entered in units of Form K1 with 2 in the Type field are excluded from Form 1041. ExacTax also provides an Electing Small Business and Qualified Subchapter S Trust Worksheet that prints the income and deduction amounts as they would appear on Form 1041 for other types of trusts.
Form 1040NR, only one of the following entity types should be used: simple trust, simple trust distributing corpus, decedent's estate, complex trust, or qualified disability trust.

2016 Fiduciary Manual
28
Enter the decedent's Social Security number. This information is used on federal Forms 56 and 8855 and on state returns.
Bankruptcy estate - tax from Form 1040
Enter the amount of tax calculated on Form 1040 (including the Net Investment Income Tax, if applicable) for the bankruptcy estate. ExacTax assumes Form 1040 has already been completed and prepares Form 1041 only as a transmittal for that return.
Qualified funeral trust - contract information
Enter the pre-need contract owner names, contract values, and termination dates, if applicable. Use additional columns to enter state return information as needed. For a composite return (more than one owner), ExacTax uses the contract values to allocate the income and calculate the tax for Form 1041-QFT, line 13.
Split-interest trust type
Enter the code that represents the type of charitable trust or use the fieldview to make the selection.
Notes
ExacTax prints Form 5227 if there is an entry in this field or if Pooled income fund is entered in the Type of entity field on this form.
If you enter 1 or 5 in this field, ExacTax prints both Forms 1041 and 5227.
If you enter "Complex trust" in the Type of entity field, the beneficiary information prints on Schedule K-1.
If you enter "Grantor trust" in the Type of entity field, the beneficiary information prints on the Grantor / Agency Report.
If you enter a code in this field, ExacTax marks the Described in section 4947(a)(2) checkbox on Form 1041, Page 1. This information is also used in the header section of Form 5227, Page 1.
If you enter 5 in this field, enter a description in the Other entity type description field on Form SIT.
Prepare Form 1040NR
Enter X to calculate Form 1040NR using trust tax rules instead of Form 1041.
Note: Form 1040NR must be filed on paper is not eligible for electronic filing.
Initial / final return
Enter a code to indicate this is an initial return, a final return, or both for Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227. This is the only place to indicate this type of return status. If a code is entered for a final return, ExacTax marks the final return checkbox on Form 1041, Form 1041-QFT, Form 5227, Schedule K-1 (Form 1041), Schedule K-1 Equivalent (Form 1040NR), and on the Grantor / Agency Report.
Date of termination
Enter the closing or termination date of the estate or trust. For the final return of a charitable remainder unitrust, ExacTax uses this information to calculate the unitrust distribution on Form 5227.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
29
Superseding return
Enter X in this field if this is a subsequent return filed before the original due date (including extensions) of the return. A superseding return is considered the original return because the superseding return replaces any other return previously filed.
If you mark this field and electronically file the return, ExacTax/1041 includes the information in the electronic file. If the return is paper filed, ExacTax prints "Superseding Return" at the top of Form 1041.
General Information
Use this section to enter general footnotes for the return and beneficiaries, and tax year-end information.
IRS may discuss return with preparer
Enter 1 to indicate that the IRS is authorized to discuss the return with the preparer or enter 2 to indicate that the IRS is not authorized to discuss the return with the preparer. If you leave this field blank, neither checkbox is marked in the signature section of Form 1041, Form 1041-QFT, or Form 1040NR.
Special processing
Enter IRS special processing information, including disaster relief designations. The information entered is displayed at the top of the return you are filing.
Note: If you electronically file Form 1041, the special processing information is not included in the electronic file.
General footnote
Enter notes to add to Form 1041. Do not use this field to attach notes to Schedules K-1 or Grantor / Agency Reports. You can enter these notes as additional information in View > Beneficiary Information or in the Schedule K-1 / Grantor Report general footnote field.
Note: Word wrap is available in this field.
Schedule K-1 / Grantor Report general footnote
Enter information to appear on every beneficiary's Schedule K-1. This information also prints on the Grantor / Agency Report when the Type of entity is Grantor trust or Agency relationship. If there is a footnote for a specific beneficiary but not for all beneficiaries, use the field to enter that information in the Additional information field in View > Beneficiary Information.
Notes
This information does not print on the Grantor / Agency Report when the Type of entity is a qualified subchapter S trust or a partial grantor trust. Use the Qualified subchapter S trust - Additional information field in View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab or the Additional information field in the View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab > Partial Grantor section to enter additional information to include on the Grantor / Agency Report for those types of returns.
Word wrap is available in this field.
Suppress on next year's proforma
Enter X to indicate that the client's data should not proforma next year. If you enter X, ExacTax will not include this client in the range of clients selected to proforma in next year's application.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
30
Note: Entering X is not necessary for final returns. A return marked as final in the current year is not available to proforma to the next year.
Tax year: Beginning, if short year
If the tax year end is a fiscal year end or a short tax year, ExacTax automatically prints the tax year-end date on the tax year ending line on Form 1041. If the client has a short tax year for the current tax period, enter the beginning date for the tax period. If this field is blank, ExacTax assumes that the tax period is a full 12 months.
Tax year: Ending, if other than 12/31
ExacTax/1041 automatically enters 12/31/xx in this field. For fiscal returns, enter the year end date.
Note: Only one Form 1041 may be electronically filed per tax year.
Prior year-ends, if different:
Use these fields only if ExacTax is calculating depreciation and the client has ever had or currently has a short tax year.
Example
A client with a current fiscal year end of 6/30/17 has prior fiscal year ends of 6/30/16, 3/31/16, 3/31/15, 6/30/14, and 9/30/13. You would enter the following:
Oldest Interim Most recent
9/30/13 6/30/14 3/31/16
Notes
If this is the client's first year and the year was shorter than 12 months, enter the ending date of the month preceding the month in which the short year began in the Most recent field. For example, if the client's year began on 5/15/16 and ended on 12/31/16, enter 4/30/16.
If you change the information in these fields after depreciation was calculated in the current year, you must recalculate depreciation; to do so, return to the Asset tab and choose Tasks > Calculate all assets.
ExacTax does not allow you access to any other form until you enter these dates correctly.

Form [2] - Contact Information
Overview
Use this form to enter or update contact information not entered in other input forms.
Contact information
Enter telephone numbers and other information relevant to the client.
Salutation
Enter the client’s name as the name should appear in the salutation of the transmittal letter. Do not enter "Dear" (ExacTax already provides this salutation). The fiduciary’s name from Form 1041 automatically transfers to this field if a salutation has not proforma’d from the prior year.
IRS Service Center
ExacTax automatically determines the appropriate IRS Service Center where the return should be mailed based on the state postal code entered on Form 1041. This field is not applicable to Forms 1040NR, 1041-A, or 5227. To override the service center, select a location from the drop-down list for this field. If you do not enter a postal code or a service center, ExacTax prints the IRS Service Center address for foreign returns in the filing instructions.
Mailing address for filing instructions
The code entered in this field determines which address ExacTax prints on filing instructions and slipsheets. ExacTax defaults to printing both the U.S. mail and private delivery addresses in the filing instructions and the standard mailing address on the slipsheet.
Beneficiary transmittal letter and slipsheet from fiduciary
ExacTax prepares a transmittal letter and mailing slipsheet for all beneficiaries. Enter X to use fiduciary information instead of firm information for the return address and closing. To set this option on a beneficiary-by-beneficiary basis, leave this field blank and mark the Letter / slipsheet from fiduciary field in View > Beneficiary Information for the beneficiaries who are to receive a letter from the fiduciary.
Suppress heading on beneficiary transmittal letter
ExacTax prepares a transmittal letter for all beneficiaries. Enter X to suppress the fiduciary or firm information at the top of the transmittal letter to use your firm letterhead.
Invoices

Form [3] - Allocation Options
Overview
Use this form to indicate allocation information that applies to all beneficiaries and to modify net income amounts.
Allocation Options
Use this section to enter allocation information that applies to all beneficiaries.
First tier beneficiaries: Allocate all items, except capital gains, equally
Enter X to allocate all non-capital income and expenses equally among all first-tier beneficiaries. An entry in this field eliminates the need to enter allocations specifically for beneficiaries in View > Beneficiary Information and takes precedence over any allocations indicated in View > Beneficiary Information, except capital gains or losses, accumulation distributions, depreciation, and depletion.
Notes
This field is applicable to first-tier beneficiaries only; the field does not affect discretionary allocations to second-tier beneficiaries.
To exclude a beneficiary from equal allocation, enter X in the Exclude from equal allocation field in the View > Beneficiary Information > Beneficiary tab.
This field is not applicable to charitable remainder annuity trusts. To allocate income equally among beneficiaries for this type of trust, do not enter allocation information in View > Beneficiary Information; enter an amount in the Total annual annuity amounts for all recipients (For equal allocation) field on Form SIT in the Split-Interest folder.
First tier beneficiaries: Allocate capital gains equally
Enter X to allocate capital gains equally among all first-tier beneficiaries. An entry in this field eliminates the need to enter capital gain allocations for specific beneficiaries in View > Beneficiary Information and takes precedence over any capital gain allocations indicated in View > Beneficiary Information.
Notes
This field is applicable to first-tier beneficiaries only; the field does not affect discretionary allocations to second-tier beneficiaries.
To exclude a beneficiary from equal allocation, enter X in the Exclude from equal allocation field in the View > Beneficiary Information > Beneficiary tab.
This field is not applicable to grantor trusts or agency relationships.
Entire amount to be distributed is discretionary
Enter X if the entire amount to be distributed from the estate or complex trust is discretionary. If you mark this field, distributions appear on Form 1041, Page 2, Schedule B, line 10, rather than on Form 1041, Page 2, Schedule B, line 9.
Note: Do not use this field when also using the Income required to be distributed (Force) field in this section.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
38
Print 28% gain with long-term loss
If a return has a total capital loss, but a 28-percent gain, and capital losses are being allocated to beneficiaries, ExacTax presents the capital loss on the Schedule K-1 for each beneficiary, but not the 28-percent gain. Enter X for the Schedule K-1 to show both the gain and loss.
Section 3406 backup withholding allocated to beneficiaries
If backup withholding is entered in the field for the Interest income, Dividends, or Other income field on Form Income; in the field for the Other withholding field on Form PayExt; in the Federal tax withheld field on Form 1099R; in the Fed W/H field on Form W2 or W2G; or in the Federal income tax withheld field on Form K1-3, enter the amount to allocate to beneficiaries. Also, enter the percentage for each beneficiary in the Withheld income taxes field in the View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab > Other Allocations section, or enter X in the First tier beneficiaries: Allocate all items, except capital gains, equally field on this form.
Allocate capital losses to beneficiaries on non-final return
Enter X to allocate capital losses in excess of capital gains to beneficiaries on non-final returns. Then, choose the View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab and indicate the amount / percent of capital gains / losses to distribute to the respective beneficiaries, or enter X in the First tier beneficiaries: Allocate capital gains equally field on this form.
Notes
If this field is blank, ExacTax limits the amount of capital losses allocable to beneficiaries to the amount of capital gains.
Per the Schedule K-1 instructions, negative amounts cannot print for any class of income shown in boxes 1 through 8. Therefore, if overall capital losses are allocated to beneficiaries, the amounts print as positive amounts in box 11 of Schedule K-1 (capital loss carryovers).
If losses are allocated to beneficiaries on a non-final return, the return is not eligible for electronic filing. The return must be filed on paper.
Allocate no income or excess deductions to beneficiaries on final return
Enter X to print “No Taxable Income” on Schedule K-1 for all non-suppressed beneficiaries and not distribute income or excess deductions to beneficiaries on a final return. If the field is not marked, excess deductions will be distributed based on the income distributions percent entered in the View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab or equally if there is no allocation. Net income will be distributed based on allocations entered on this form, in the View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab, or equally by default.
Final return or simple trust: Allocate credits, estate taxes, …
ExacTax automatically allocates 100 percent of the credits, estate taxes, and state withholding on a simple trust or final return to the beneficiaries. To allocate a portion of these items to the trust, enter X in this field, then enter percentages in the applicable fields in the View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab > Other Allocations section. This field applies to current-year foreign tax credit and general business credits (not credit carryovers), taxes withheld, and estate tax deduction.
Suppress: Investment income on Schedule K-1 (Form 4952)
ExacTax prints the investment income allocated to the beneficiary on Schedule K-1, box 14, code E and includes detail information in the beneficiary package. Enter X to suppress this information from printing with the return.
Suppress: Printing beneficiary numbers
2016 Fiduciary Manual
39
ExacTax/1041 automatically prints a beneficiary number on the top of each Schedule K-1 and Grantor / Agency Report. Enter X to suppress the printing of the number on Schedule K-1 or the Grantor / Agency Report.
Subject to throwback rules
ExacTax does not automatically produce Schedule J. Enter X to indicate that the return is subject to throwback rules and that ExacTax should calculate Schedule J. Note that you must also enter data on Form J to produce Schedule J.
Pooled income funds: Allocate based on ownership share
Enter a code to allocate ordinary income or capital gains based on a percentage of ownership instead of amount / percent entries in View > Beneficiary Information. Then, choose View > Beneficiary Information, and enter a percent in the Ownership share field for each beneficiary. One-hundred percent of the income for the option selected is distributed based on the ownership share entered for one beneficiary divided by the sum of the ownership share entered for all beneficiaries.
Notes:
ExacTax/1041 prepares a statement for Form 1041, Page 1, line 18 for the detail calculation of the distribution deduction. Use the field for the Computation of income distribution deduction field on this form to use your own detail calculation.
Allocating income equally by entering X in either of the first two fields on this form has precedence over the option to allocate using ownership share.
If allocating only ordinary income using ownership share (code 1), capital gains will remain at the fund level unless allocated to beneficiaries on this form (equally) or in View > Beneficiary Information.
If allocating only ordinary income using ownership share (code 1) on a final return and there is no allocation entered for capital gains, then as a default, capital gains will be allocated using ownership share.
Pooled income funds: Computation of income distribution deduction
For a pooled income fund, ExacTax/1041 calculates an income distribution amount but does not complete Form 1041, Page 2, Schedule B.
If you allocate based on ownership share, ExacTax/1041 prepares a statement that shows the calculation of the distribution deduction for Form 1041, Page 1, line 18. Use the field for this field to suppress this statement and to enter your own calculation.
If you do not allocate based on ownership share, enter the detail required for Form 1041, Page 1, line 18.
Produce beneficiary / grantor worksheets
Enter a code to have ExacTax generate the Beneficiary Summary Worksheets or the Grantor Summary Worksheet for a grantor trust. For a grantor trust, there is only one worksheet, which contains both percentage and amount information.
Notes
If you enter X in the First tier beneficiaries: Allocate all items, except capital gains, equally field on this form, ExacTax does not produce the Beneficiary Percentage Worksheet regardless of the code you enter in this field.
2016 Fiduciary Manual

Allocation of Indirect Expenses
Use this section to enter information regarding the allocation of indirect expenses to calculate amounts for the Allocation of Expenses by Income Type Worksheets.
Net capital gains for tax-exempt income allocation (Force)
By default, ExacTax includes capital gains to the extent the gains are included in distributable net income in the allocation of indirect expenses to tax-exempt income. Use this field to override the calculated amount.
Use net rather than gross method for allocating expenses
Enter X for ExacTax to use the net method for allocating indirect expenses. If this field is blank, ExacTax defaults to the gross method for allocating indirect expenses.
Allocate indirect tax expense to all income types
By default, ExacTax does not allocate tax expense to tax-exempt income. Enter X for ExacTax to include tax-exempt income in the allocation of indirect tax expenses.
Exclude Indirect Expense
By default, ExacTax allocates indirect expenses against all income types except capital gains. Enter or delete X in the appropriate fields to allocate or exclude income types from the allocation of indirect expenses.
Notes
These fields have no affect on the allocation of expenses to tax-exempt income.
If all of the income types are excluded from the allocation of indirect expenses and there are indirect expenses in the return, those expenses are allocated to interest income. If there is no interest income in the return, the expenses are reclassified to an existing income type.
If you leave the capital gain fields blank, ExacTax allocates indirect expenses to capital gains only to the extent that the gains are included in distributable net income (DNI). By default, only gains allocated to beneficiaries are included in DNI. To change the amount of capital gains used in the allocation of indirect expenses, use the following fields on Form Dist.
100% of capital gains includible in DNI per trust document
Short-term capital gain includible in DNI if not 100% (Force)
Section 1231 gain includible in DNI if not 100% (Force)
Other long-term capital gain includible in DNI if not 100% (Force)
For information about allocating expenses to capital gains, see Allocating expenses to capital gains.
Net Income by Type
Use these fields to enter income items to override the calculated amounts on the Allocation of Expenses by Income Type Worksheets. Net amounts from these worksheets are the amounts available for distribution to the beneficiaries.

ExacTax uses this information to determine what information appears in the filing instructions. ExacTax automatically transfers the selection entered in this field to the Signature Document field in the Utilities > Electronic Filing Status dialog when you create the electronic file.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
43
Note: By default, Form 8879-F prints with the tax return regardless of this field. ExacTax enters an X in the Always print Form 8879 (etc.), regardless of signature status field in Setup > Office Configuration > Print Options.
Electronic funds withdrawel for balance due returns: Suppress electronic funds withdrawal
Enter X in this field for balance due returns with primary bank account information entered on Form Bank to suppress paying the balance due by electronic funds withdrawal.
Electronic funds withdrawel for balance due returns: Requested payment date
This is a required entry to generate the electronic funds withdrawal (direct debit) payment in the Form 1041 electronic file. If this field is blank, ExacTax does not generate an e-file payment form.
Electronic filers with a balance due can authorize a direct transfer of the total balance due from their checking or savings account. This feature allows electronic filers the option of filing early and setting a date no later than the 15th day of the fourth month after the year end for automatic payment of the balance due. This payment form is an electronic document only; a paper form is not generated. For ExacTax to calculate the e-file electronic funds withdrawal (direct debit) payment, there must be an entry in this field.
Notes
You must enter the requested payment date.
You must enter bank account information on Form Bank.
Name control
ExacTax automatically generates the name control for the electronic file based on information entered in the Family name for electronic filing name control field on Form 1041 per Publication 5078 and displays the text on this form. To override this value, enter the new value in the Force field. The IRS determines the name control differently depending on how the Employer Identification Number (EIN) of the estate or trust was obtained; therefore, you should review name control text for correctness based on the following criteria.
If the EIN was requested using the internet, the name control should be derived from the first four characters of the name of the estate or trust.
If the EIN was requested using Form SS-4, the name control should be derived as follows:
For estates, the name control should be derived from the first four characters of the last name of the decedent.
For trusts when an individual is listed, the name control should be derived from the first four characters of the last name of the individual.
For trusts when a corporation, association, or endowment is part of the trust name, the name control should be derived from the first four characters of the name of the corporation, association, or endowment.
For numbered trusts and GNMA Pools, the name control should be derived from the first four digits of the trust number. If the name control text is not correct, enter the correct name control in the force field.
Note: When an EIN is obtained, the IRS issues Notice CP 575 B. The name control is displayed after the date of application on the IRS Use Only line at the top of the second page of the notice.

Personal Identification Number (PIN)
Use this section to complete Form 8879-F for electronically filed returns.
Personal identification number (PIN) authorization indicator
Enter 1 if the taxpayer is going to enter the PIN or 2 if the taxpayer authorized the electronic return originator to enter the taxpayer PIN. Enter the code directly or select it from the fieldview.

Taxpayer PIN
Enter the taxpayer’s self-selected Personal Identification Number (PIN). Enter any five digits except 00000.
Notes
The taxpayer must personally enter the PIN if you are using the Practitioner PIN option. If the Electronic Return Originator (ERO) receives permission to enter the PIN for the taxpayer, the taxpayer must sign Form 8879-F, IRS e-file Signature Authorization, which the ERO retains.
The PIN does not proforma from year to year because the PIN is the equivalent of an electronic "signature." This is in accordance with the IRS procedural steps that participating PIN program practitioners must follow.
The Taxpayer PIN, Signature date, and Electronic return originator PIN fields are required entries when using the PIN method to electronically sign the return. You should review the diagnostic messages before you create the electronic file.
Signature date
Enter the date the return is electronically signed by the fiduciary. This is a required entry when using e-file signature authentication and the IRS rejects any returns missing this information.
Note: The Taxpayer PIN, Signature date, and Electronic return originator PIN fields are required entries when using the PIN method to electronically sign the return. You should review the diagnostic messages before you create the electronic file.
Electronic return originator (ERO) PIN
Enter the Preparer Personal Identification Number (PIN), which is a self-selected set of five numbers. Enter any five digits except for 00000. The actual ERO PIN is an 11-digit number. ExacTax uses the six-digit IRS assigned EFIN and the five-digit self-selected PIN to determine the ERO PIN.
Notes
The PIN does not proforma from year to year because the PIN is the equivalent of an electronic "signature." This is in accordance with the IRS procedural steps that participating PIN program practitioners must follow.
The Taxpayer PIN, Signature date, and Electronic return originator PIN fields are required entries when using the PIN method to electronically sign the return. You should review the diagnostic messages before you create the electronic file.

Form [5] - Penalties
Overview
Use this form to enter data for the calculation of the underpayment penalty on Form 2210 or 2210-F.
Penalties, Exceptions, and Interest
ExacTax uses the information in this section to complete Forms 2210 and 2210-F and to calculate the penalty for failure to file, penalty for failure to pay, and late filing interest.
Because of the two-year exemption for a decedent's estate, ExacTax does not calculate any penalty for underpayment of estimated tax for an estate unless the Date created / decedent's date of death field on Form 1041 is more than two years
before the current tax year end.
Date filed, if other than due date of return
If the date you enter is after the return due date, ExacTax automatically calculates the penalty for failure to pay, the penalty for failure to file, and the interest on the underpayment. The penalty calculations begin on the 15th of the month even if it falls on a holiday or weekend.
Interest and penalty amounts, if applicable, print on the bottom of Form 1041, Page 1, Form 1041-QFT, or Form 1040NR, Page 2 with the following identifying codes.
Code Description
INT Interest due
FTF Failure to file
FTP Failure to pay
ExacTax also uses the filing date entered in the Date return filed field to calculate any underpayment penalties for Forms
2210 and 2210-F. If the field is blank, ExacTax defaults to the original due date of the return.
Prior year tax
If ExacTax/1041 was used in the prior year, this information proformas automatically. Otherwise, enter the prior year's tax. If this field is blank, ExacTax uses the current-year liability.
Prior year adjusted gross income
If ExacTax/1041 was used in the prior year, this information proformas automatically. Otherwise, enter the prior year's adjusted gross income.
Waiver requested: Amount
Enter the amount of the waiver requested. ExacTax automatically limits the amount to the calculated penalty.
Waiver requested: Equal to penalty calculated
Enter X to use the calculated penalty as the waiver amount.
Waiver requested: Explanation
2016 Fiduciary Manual
49
Describe why the client is unable to meet the estimated tax requirements and the time period for which a waiver is being requested.
Note: Word wrap is available in this field.
Federal withholding as actually withheld
To have federal withholding credited as actually withheld, enter the amount of federal income tax withheld from all sources for each period. These amounts transfer to Form 2210.
2/3 of gross income from farming or fishing
Enter 1 if two-thirds of the trust's gross income is from farming or 2 if two-thirds of the trust's gross income is from fishing. An entry in this field calculates Form 2210-F rather than Form 2210.
Regular method calculation (Force)
ExacTax uses the short method of calculating the penalty, if possible. Enter X to force ExacTax to use the regular method of calculating the penalty.
Suppress: Underpayment of estimated tax penalty
ExacTax prints Form 2210 or 2210-F and enters the amount on the applicable line on Form 1041, 1041-QFT, or 1040NR. Enter X to suppress the printing of Form 2210 or 2210-F and the calculation of the 2210 penalty on the return.
Note: ExacTax prints Form 2210 or 2210-F as the instructions state conditions for printing. If the Underpayment of estimated tax penalty field is marked, Form 2210 or 2210-F does not print. To suppress the penalty but print the form, enter X in the Underpayment of estimated tax penalty field, choose View > Form, then choose Edit > Overrides > Force Form To Print.
Suppress: Late interest
Enter X to suppress the late payment interest on the return and to print "Interest suppressed on return" on the worksheet. ExacTax prints the Interest and Penalty Worksheet if this field is left blank and late interest is due. The worksheet also prints if the Failure to file penalty or Failure to pay penalty fields are blank and a failure to file or failure to pay penalty exists.
Suppress: Failure to file penalty
Enter X to suppress the failure to file penalty on the return and to print "Penalty suppressed on return" on the worksheet. ExacTax prints the Interest and Penalty Worksheet if this field is left blank and a failure to file penalty is due. The worksheet also prints if the Late interest or Failure to pay penalty fields are blank and late interest or failure to pay penalty exists.
Suppress: Failure to pay penalty
Enter X to suppress the failure to pay penalty on the return and to print "Penalty suppressed on return" on the worksheet. ExacTax prints the Interest and Penalty Worksheet if this field is left blank and a failure to pay penalty is due. The worksheet also prints if the Failure to file or Late interest fields are blank and a failure to file or late interest penalty exists.

Form [7A] - Estimates
Overview
Use this form to enter information to calculate estimates for the following year.
Overpayment
Use this section to enter overpayment application information.
Application of current year overpayment / Amount for code 5 or 8
The code you select determines how ExacTax applies any current-year overpayment. ExacTax uses this information to complete the applicable line on Form 1041, 1041-QFT, or 1040NR.
Code Result
1 Refund 100% of the overpayment. This is the default option.
2 Apply 100% of overpayment to next year's estimate and refund the excess. This option applies the overpayment to each successive estimate until the overpayment is exhausted or all estimated payments are made, in which case the excess is refunded.
3 Apply to first quarter estimate and refund the excess.
4 Apply equally to each quarter and refund the excess. This option applies the overpayment equally to each estimate and refunds any excess overpayment.
5 Apply the portion of the overpayment shown in the Amount for code 5 or 8 field to the estimates until the overpayment is exhausted or all payments are made and refund the excess.
6 Apply to first and second quarter estimates and refund the excess.
7 Apply 100% of overpayment to next year's estimate with no refund.
8 Apply amount specified below in the Amount for code 5 or 8 field. If this code is entered and the Next year declaration field is blank, estimates do not calculate.
Estimate Payment Voucher
To have ExacTax calculate estimated tax payments for a client, enter 2 through 7 in the Application of current year overpayment field or enter a code in the Next year declaration field.
Next year declaration
The code you enter determines which method ExacTax uses to determine the amount of next year's estimated tax. Enter 2 through 7 in the Application of current year overpayment field to default to option 1 in the Next year declaration field. If both fields are blank, ExacTax does not generate estimates.
Code Result
1 Use the current-year income tax liability. This is the default if option 2 through 7 is entered in the Application of current year overpayment field.
Note: If the current-year tax is less than the minimum filing requirements, the vouchers do not print.
2 Use the current-year income tax liability plus the adjustment in the Amount for code 2 field. If this option is selected, also enter an adjustment to the current-year tax liability in the Amount for code 2 field. If the adjustment
2016 Fiduciary Manual
55
Code Result
represents a decrease, enter a negative amount.
3 Use the current-year income tax liability even if the total liability falls below the minimum amount required to make estimated payments.
4 Print vouchers with amount fields blank. If you select this option, ExacTax/1041 prints estimate vouchers with the amount fields left blank. No estimate filing instructions are produced when choosing this option unless you enter X in the Print estimate filing instructions with blank amounts with code 4 field.
5 Use amounts entered below. If this code is selected, also enter amounts in the Amounts for code 5 or 9 fields.
Note: These amounts are adjusted by any overpayment applied.
6 Use the current-year amounts plus the adjustments in the Amounts for code 6 fields. If this code is selected, also enter adjustments to the current-year amounts in the Amounts for code 6 fields. If the adjustment represents a decrease, enter a negative amount.
8 Use next year's tax rates to calculate liability. Select this code to calculate next year's estimates when tax rates change from year to year. If this code is selected and the rates for the next year do not change, estimates are calculated as though code 1 was selected.
9 Use amounts entered below. If this code is selected, also enter amounts in the Amounts for code 5 or 9 fields.
Note: These amounts are not adjusted by any overpayment applied.
Notes
When ExacTax calculates the estimated tax worksheet, the long-term capital gains are taxed at 15 percent. If the gains should be taxed at a different rate, use the Amounts for code 6: Other taxes field on this form to adjust the tax amount.
Print estimate filing instructions with blank amounts with code 4
If code 4 is entered in the Next year declaration field, the estimate vouchers will print without amounts in the amount fields, but the estimate filing instructions will not print. Mark this field to print the estimate filing instructions as if estimates were calculated. The filing instructions will print with blank amount fields.
Note: This option applies to all returns attached to the client that permit use of code 4.
Amounts for code 5 or 9
Use these fields to specify the estimate amounts for each quarter.
If you enter code 5 in the Next year declaration field, enter the desired quarterly payments in these fields. These amounts adjust by the overpayment, if applicable and print on the vouchers.
If you enter code 9 in the Next year declaration field, enter the desired quarterly payments in these fields. ExacTax/1041 prints these amounts on the vouchers without adjustment.
Amounts for next year’s payments made
Use these fields to enter any estimated payments already made toward the next year.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
56
If you enter code 1, 2, 3, 6, or 8 in the Next year declaration field, enter the amounts paid for each next year estimate. These amounts and the overpayment are subtracted from the calculated quarterly estimated tax liability to determine the voucher amounts.
Number of vouchers desired next year, if other than four
The code entered in this field determines how many estimates are desired and for which quarter ExacTax should use the estimates. ExacTax defaults the number of estimates to four.
Factor for rounding estimates
Enter a rounding multiple for the estimated payments. The estimated payments can be rounded up to the nearest $10, $100, or $1,000. For example, to round up each estimated payment to the nearest $10, enter 10. If this field is blank, ExacTax automatically rounds each estimated payment up to the nearest dollar.
Treat 4th quarter estimate as due 12/31
Enter X to use December 31 as the due date for the fourth quarter estimate on the Estimated Tax Payment worksheet and in the filing instructions that accompany the actual payment vouchers.
EFTPS Filing Instructions
Enter X in this field to generate filing instructions for EFTPS (Electronic Federal Tax Payment Service).

Form [7B] - Payments and Extensions
Overview
Use this form to enter information regarding federal estimates paid during the year and to extend the due date of the return.
Payments
Use this section to enter the prior-year overpayment applied, estimated tax, and extension amounts. ExacTax uses this information on Form 1041, Page 1; Form 1041-QFT; Form 1040NR; and in the calculation of Forms 2210 and 2210-F.
Prior year overpayment applied
Enter any prior-year overpayment applied. If prior-year information is available, the information proformas automatically. ExacTax adds this amount to one of the following amounts and then transfers the total to the applicable payment line on Form 1041, 1041-QFT, or 1040NR.
amount in the Total estimates paid field
amounts in the 1st - 5th payment: Amount Paid fields
ExacTax also applies any amount in this field to the current-year first-quarter estimate for purposes of calculating Forms 2210 and 2210-F.
Paid with extension
Each time you print the extension (via the File > Print Extensions dialog), ExacTax does the following:
calculates the extension payment and prints the amount on the extension form,
enters the calculated amount in this field, and
prints this amount on the main return.
Alternatively, you can overrule the calculated amount by entering the amount actually paid with the current-year extension in this field. ExacTax then displays the new amount in black. This amount prints only on the main return.
Notes
To delete the overruled amount and restore the original calculated amount, right-click the field and choose Delete overrule.
To confirm the accuracy of the overruled amount, right-click the field and choose Acknowledge overruled data. ExacTax then disables the acknowledge functionality from the right-click menu. To restore the original amount later, you will need to manually enter the amount.
Total estimates paid / Specific payments, if unequal or not timely: 1st-5th payment
Enter the total current-year estimates in the Total estimates paid field if the estimates were paid in equal amounts and on time. ExacTax applies this amount equally to all estimated tax payments for purposes of calculating Forms 2210 and 2210-F. To override this default, enter actual amounts of estimated tax payments in the Amount Paid fields. Once you enter amounts in the particular payment fields, ExacTax ignores information in the Total estimates paid field.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
59
Enter the actual amount of each payment in the appropriate Amount Paid field, and enter the date if the payment was not on time. Do not include any prior-year overpayment applied amount in the 1st payment field.
Payments made between the 16th and 18th may be considered timely. If the Saturday-Sunday-holiday rule applies, and the payment was made within the grace period, do not enter the date paid.
Note: Five payment fields are provided to allow for situations in which more than one payment was made in a quarter. Enter payments in the order in which they were made. The first payment date defaults to the first-quarter due date, the second payment to the second-quarter due date, and so on. The fifth payment date defaults to the fourth-quarter due date. However, note that these are not quarterly payment fields. For example, record a payment in the first quarter in the 1st payment field. Then, if there were two payments made in the second quarter, they would be recorded in the 2nd payment and 3rd payment fields. The third-quarter and fourth-quarter payments would be entered in the 4th payment and 5th payment fields, respectively.
Treat calculated amounts as paid / Calculated: 1st-5th payment
If a return was completed using last years’ application and estimates were calculated for the current year, ExacTax proformas the amounts into the Calculated Amount fields. If data has not been entered for estimate payments and the calculated amounts were paid, enter X in the Treat calculated amounts as paid field to transfer the calculated amounts to the Amount Paid fields.
Allocate payments to beneficiaries: Allocate 100%
Enter X if the estate or trust made estimated tax payments and 100 percent of these payments is allocated to the beneficiaries.
Note: Only estimate payments made as of the fourth estimate payment date (January 15 for a calendar year) are considered for allocation to beneficiaries.
Allocate payments to beneficiaries: Amount to allocate, if not 100%
To allocate an amount to the beneficiaries other than the total amount of the estimates made, enter the amount to allocate in this field.
Notes
If you enter data in the Allocate 100% or Amount to allocate, if not 100% field, ExacTax calculates Form 1041-T. If both fields contain data, the Allocate 100% field takes precedence.
If percentages have not been entered in View > Beneficiary Information > Federal > Other Allocations to allocate the estimated tax payments, ExacTax allocates the amounts equally among all beneficiaries.
Date 1041-T filed, if other than 65 days after year end
Enter the date on which Form 1041-T was filed. This date prints on the beneficiary’s Schedule K-1. If you leave this field blank, and an entry has been made in the Allocate 100% or Amount to allocate, if not 100% field, ExacTax defaults to using a date that is 65 days after the trust’s year end.
General Extension Information
The following extension forms are applicable to fiduciary returns.

Extended due date
The extended due date automatically displays in this field when you prepare an extension using the File > Print Extensions dialog. Otherwise, enter the date to use as the extended due date.
ExacTax uses this date in the calculation of late filing penalties and interest as well as the transmittal letter and filing instructions.
Estimate of total tax liability (Force)
If you enter an amount in this field, ExacTax/1041 calculates the total tax on the extension using the estimated payments and credits entered on other forms.
Balance due on extension (Force)
If you enter an amount in this field, ExacTax/1041 does the following:
completes the Extended due date field,
transfers this amount to the Paid with extension field, and
calculates the total tax on the extension using the estimated payments and withholding entered on other forms.
Short tax year - Other explanation
If the return for a short tax year is not due to initial / final return or a change in accounting period, use the field to enter an explanation for the other reason.
Extension for Forms 1041-A or 5227
Extended due date
The extended due date automatically displays in this field when you prepare an extension using the File > Print Extensions dialog. Otherwise, enter the date to use as the extended due date.

Form [8] - State Payments
Overview
Use this form to enter information regarding state estimates paid during the year. Sections are available for two state returns in this multiple unit input form.
Section 1
State postal code
If you are processing multiple states for this client, do not leave this field blank. The state postal codes are listed in the fieldview.
Type of return
Select the type of state return to which the estimated payments should be applied. The fieldview is dependent on the code entered in the State postal code field. If this field is blank, the application defaults to applying the estimated payments to the main state form. Refer to your state guides for additional information.
Note: If the selection is identified as a withholding return, amounts entered are not considered in the calculation of tax expense for Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227.
Corpus
If some or all of the state tax payments are allocable to corpus rather than to income, enter the percentage that is allocable to corpus in XXX.XXXX format.
Allocate to income type code / description
Enter a code to allocate state taxes directly to a specific category of income.
If you leave this field blank, ExacTax/1041 allocates the tax expense indirectly to taxable income types, including capital gains to the extent they are included in distributable net income if the Do not allocate indirect expenses against: Short-term gains / Long-term gains fields are blank on Form Allocate.
Prior year: Tax due / paid with return
If ExacTax/1041 was used in the prior year, this information proformas automatically. Otherwise, enter the amount of state income tax paid in the current year for the prior-year state return. ExacTax includes this information in the deductions on Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227.
Prior year: Overpayment applied
If ExacTax/1041 was used in the prior year, the state overpayment amount proformas automatically. Otherwise, enter any prior-year overpayment that was applied. ExacTax adds this amount to one of the following amounts and if applicable, transfers this total to the appropriate line of the integrated state return.
amount in the Total estimates paid field
amounts in the 1st - 5th payment: Amount Paid fields
2016 Fiduciary Manual
63
ExacTax also applies any amount in this field to next year's first-quarter estimate for the purposes of calculating state penalty forms, if applicable.
Prior year: Estimates paid current year
If ExacTax/1041 was used in the prior year, this information proformas automatically. Otherwise, enter the amount of prior-year state estimated tax payments actually paid in the current year. ExacTax includes this amount with taxes on Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227.
Total estimates paid / Specific payments, if unequal or not timely: 1st-5th
Enter the total current-year estimates in the Total estimates paid field if the estimates were paid in equal amounts and on time. ExacTax applies this amount equally to all estimated tax payments for the purpose of calculating the state penalty form, if applicable, and includes 75 percent of the amount on the applicable tax deduction line on Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227. To override this default, enter actual amounts of estimated tax payments in the Paid fields. If you enter amounts in the particular payment fields, ExacTax ignores information in the Total estimates paid field.
Enter the actual amount of each payment in the appropriate Paid field, and enter the date if the payment was not on time. Do not include any prior-year overpayment applied amount in the 1st payment field.
Payments made between the 16th and 18th may be considered timely. If the Saturday-Sunday-holiday rule applies, and the payment was made within the grace period, do not enter the date paid.
Enter state payments in federal Form StPmt so the amounts transfer to the applicable line on Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227. If you enter payments in more than one of the state payments sections provided in federal Form StPmt, be sure to use the same fields for each state. For example, if using the Total estimates paid field in one section for Arizona, use the Total estimates paid field when you enter state payments for California. Similarly, if using the 1st - 5th payment fields,
enter amounts in the payment fields for all sections.
Notes
ExacTax provides five payment fields to allow for situations in which more than one payment was made in a quarter. Enter payments in the order in which they were made. The first payment date defaults to the first-quarter due date, the second payment to the second-quarter due date, and so on. The fifth payment date defaults to the fourth-quarter due date.
However, note that these are not quarterly payment fields. For example, record a payment in the first quarter in the 1st payment field. Then, if there were two payments made in the second quarter, they would be recorded in the 2nd payment and 3rd payment fields. Enter the third-quarter and fourth-quarter payments in the 4th payment and 5th payment fields, respectively.
ExacTax transfers the total of state estimates made for the tax year to the main form in the applicable state product.
Treat calculated amounts as paid
If the return was completed using last year's application and estimates were calculated for the current year, ExacTax proformas the amounts into the Calculated Amount fields. If data has not been entered for estimate payments and the calculated amounts were paid, enter X in the Treat calculated amounts as paid field to transfer the calculated amounts to the Amount Paid fields.
Allocate payments to beneficiaries: Allocate 100%
2016 Fiduciary Manual
64
Enter X if the estate or trust made state estimated tax payments and 100 percent of these payments is allocated to the beneficiaries.
Note: Only estimate payments made as of the fourth estimate payment date are considered for allocation to beneficiaries.
Allocate payments to beneficiaries: Amount to allocate, if not 100%
To allocate an amount to the beneficiaries other than the total amount of the estimates made, enter the amount to be allocated in this field.
Notes
If you make an entry in the Allocate 100% or Amount to allocate, if not 100% field, ExacTax calculates the state estimate allocation form. If both fields contain data, the Allocate 100% field takes precedence.
If percentages have not been entered in the View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab; Other Allocations group box to allocate the estimated tax payments, ExacTax allocates the amounts equally among all beneficiaries.

Form [10A] - Beneficiary Information Overview
Use this tab to enter general beneficiary information such as name, address, and filing instruction information. The application uses this information to complete both the federal and state returns.
Entity
Enter the beneficiary’s entity type directly in the field or select a type from the drop-down list. UltraTax CS uses “Individual” as the default. If the beneficiary is a corporation, this is a final return, and there are short-term and long-term capital losses, UltraTax CS enters the beneficiary’s share of both types of losses as a single item on the short-term capital loss carryover line on Schedule K-1 as instructed.
SSN / EIN
Enter the beneficiary’s Social Security Number or Employer Identification Number (EIN). If the beneficiary has applied for but not yet received a number, enter either a hyphen or the letter A as the first character in this field for UltraTax CS to print "Applied for." If the foreign beneficiary does not have an identification number, enter ForeignUS. A number entered without hyphens defaults to ###-##-#### format.
Note: When the Require a password to display SSN checkbox is marked in the Setup > Security tab, UltraTax CS displays the Social Security number as "###-##-####." For more information on masking Social Security Numbers, see Modify Password to Display SSNs dialog.
Name and Address
Enter the beneficiary's name and address information in these fields. Notes
If the beneficiary is not an individual, the First name and Last fields are changed to a single Name field.
In the City field, enter the name of the beneficiary’s city. If the beneficiary has a foreign address, enter the province name.
In the State field, enter the beneficiary’s state postal code or select an option from the drop-down list for the field. Use “. “ if beneficiary has a foreign address.
In the Zip code field, enter the five- or 10-digit ZIP code. If the beneficiary has a foreign address, enter the foreign postal code.
In the Foreign country code field, select a country code from the fieldview if the beneficiary is a foreign person or entity. UltraTax CS uses this information to complete Schedule K-1, Part II, box H. Massachusetts uses this information for electronic filing.
In the State of residency, if different from above field, enter the beneficiary’s state of residence at year end if the residence is different from the beneficiary’s address. Use this field if you are integrating with a state program. UltraTax CS uses information entered in the State of residency, if different from above field to determine resident versus nonresident status.
In the Date of birth field, enter the beneficiary’s complete date of birth in MM/DD/YYYY format. UltraTax CS uses this information to calculate amounts accumulated before age 21 in the Schedule J Allocation of Trust Accumulation Distribution Worksheet.
In the Telephone number field, enter the beneficiary’s telephone number. UltraTax CS uses this information for state purposes only when applicable.
Form 1128 box Tax year end: (if not calendar)
Enter the beneficiary’s tax year end if other than a calendar year end. If this field is blank, UltraTax CS uses a 12/31 default date as the beneficiary’s tax year end. UltraTax CS uses this information for decedent’s estate returns to complete Form 1128, Part III, Section G.
Taxable amounts distributed
Enter the taxable amounts distributed to the beneficiary for the periods indicated. UltraTax CS uses this information for decedent’s estate returns to complete Form 1128, Part III, Section G.
Other Information group box Suppress printing of this Schedule K-1
2016 Fiduciary Manual
69
If you entered beneficiary information from the will or trust agreement but do not want a Schedule K-1 prepared for the current-year return, mark this checkbox to suppress printing of the Schedule K-1 for this beneficiary. Notes
If the beneficiary does not receive an allocation and is not suppressed, UltraTax CS prints a Schedule K-1 for this beneficiary and prints “NO TAXABLE INCOME” above Part I.
This field is not available for charitable remainder trusts, qualified subchapter S trusts, grantor trusts, or agency relationship returns.
Partial grantor trust: Beneficiary with power
Mark this checkbox to indicate on the Grantor / Agency Report that this is the beneficiary who receives the income and related deductions. Once marked, enter information in the Partial Grantor dialog (Federal tab > Partial Grantor button) for this beneficiary Note: UltraTax CS completes a Grantor / Agency Report for only one beneficiary. Once the checkbox has been marked for a beneficiary, the checkbox is disabled for all other beneficiaries. To change to a different beneficiary, clear the checkbox for the initial beneficiary to enable the checkbox for another beneficiary.
Second tier / discretionary
Mark this checkbox to indicate that this is a second tier beneficiary. UltraTax CS allocates income to second-tier beneficiaries to the extent of the remaining distributable net income (DNI) after all first-tier allocations have been made. This field is not available for simple trusts, charitable remainder trusts, grantor trusts, or agency relationships. Tiered distributions are not used for depreciation, depletion, credit, or withholding allocations. Note: If all of the beneficiaries are second tier beneficiaries, and you enter X in the Entire amount to be distributed is discretionary field on Screen Allocate, you do not need to enter data in this field.
Final Schedule K-1 or Grantor Report
Mark this checkbox to indicate the Schedule K-1 or Grantor / Agency Report as final. If you enter data in this field, UltraTax CS also marks any state Schedules K-1, Schedule K-1 Equivalents, or Grantor / Agency Reports for this beneficiary as final. Note: If you indicate that the return is final in the Estate / Trust Information section on Screen 1041, UltraTax CS also marks every beneficiary's federal and state Schedule K-1 or the Grantor / Agency Report as final.
Additional information
Enter notes and additional information for this beneficiary to print on a Schedule K-1, box 14 statement. If you prepare a grantor trust or agency relationship return, the information prints on the Grantor / Agency Report. If there is additional information to print on each of these beneficiary’s Schedules K-1 or Grantor / Agency Reports, enter the information in the statement dialog for the General footnote – Schedule K-1 and Grantor / Agency Report field on Screen 1041.
Notes
To enter notes and additional information to print on the Grantor / Agency Report prepared for a qualified subchapter S trust, use the Qualified subchapter S trust: Additional information field on the Federal tab > Other Returns section instead of this field.
To enter notes and additional information to print on the Grantor / Agency Report prepared for a partial grantor trust, use the statement dialog for the Additional Information field on the Federal tab > Partial Grantor button instead of this field.
Transmittal Letter group box Salutation
Enter the beneficiary's name as the name should appear in the salutation of the transmittal letter that prints with Schedule K-1 or with the Grantor / Agency Report. Do not enter "Dear" (UltraTax CS provides this salutation). If you leave this field blank, UltraTax CS prints "Dear Beneficiary."
Letter / slipsheet from fiduciary
Mark this checkbox to generate a transmittal letter and slipsheet from the fiduciary to the beneficiary. If you leave this field blank, UltraTax CS prints the firm information in the return address for the beneficiary transmittal letter and slipsheet. To generate a transmittal letter from the fiduciary to all beneficiaries of this estate or trust, enter X in the Beneficiary transmittal letter / slipsheet from fiduciary field on Screen Letter.
Note: To set this option for all clients you subsequently add, choose Setup > 1041 Fiduciary, click the Federal tab, click the New Client Options button, and mark the Use fiduciary name rather than firm name for beneficiary transmittal letter / slipsheet checkbox.

Beneficiary is a 1040 client
Mark this checkbox to indicate that the beneficiary is a 1040 client. This generates a paragraph regarding the firm retaining a copy of Schedule K-1 or the Grantor / Agency Report to prepare the individual tax return for this particular beneficiary. If you leave this field blank, UltraTax CS assumes the beneficiary is not a 1040 client.

Form [23] - Distributions
Overview
Use this form to enter information regarding pension and other retirement income reported on federal Form 1099-R.
Form 1099-R Facsimile
Name
The payer’s name entered in this field is used as the unit description in the folders block on the left side of the form. This is a required entry.
Note: There must be an entry in this field for ExacTax to recognize data on this form.
State postal code
If you process a state return and the income for this activity is other than the location entered in the payer's address, enter a state postal code for proper state processing. If you leave this field blank, none of the income for this activity will be considered source income for that state.
Allocable to corpus
If all or part of the income from this activity is allocable to corpus rather than income, enter the percentage that is allocable to corpus in XXX.XXXX format.
Income type
Use the fieldview to select a type of pension or retirement plan to determine whether the income is taxable or should be a subtraction for ExacTax/1041 states.
Note: Annuities are considered investment income for Form 4952.
Non-retirement income
Enter X to indicate that the income is investment instead of retirement. This information does not appear on the federal 1041 return; the information is for state use only.
Nonqualified annuity (Code D)
Enter X in this field if Form 1099-R box 7 Distribution code contains code D.
Note: If Form 1099-R has another distribution code along with code D, enter the other distribution code in Form 1099-R box 7 Distribution code and enter X in this field
Gross distribution
Enter the gross distribution from Form 1099-R, box 1. This amount is used for the calculation of nontaxable income and is included in accounting income.
Taxable amount
Enter the taxable amount of the distribution from Form 1099-R, box 2a. This amount is included on Form 1041, Page 1, line 8, Form 1040NR, Page 1, Line 21, or Form 5227, Page 1, line 7. The difference between the Gross distribution and Taxable
2016 Fiduciary Manual
79
amount fields is reported as nontaxable income on Form 5227, Page 1, line 15 and is considered part of tax-exempt income for Form 1041 calculations.
Note: To not consider the difference as nontaxable income, delete the entry in the Nontaxable income: Treat difference between Form 1099R gross distributions and taxable amount as nontaxable field on Form Income in the Income folder.
Capital gain
Enter the capital gain from Form 1099-R, box 3. This amount is only used for the calculation of Form 4972 and is not reported on Forms 1041, 1040NR, or 5227.
Net unrealized appreciation
Enter the amount of net unrealized appreciation from Form 1099-R, box 6. If applicable, also enter election information in the Elect to include net unrealized appreciation in income field in the Form 4972 - Lump-Sum Distributions Tax section on this form for ExacTax to calculate the amount of net unrealized appreciation includible in taxable income. If there is an amount in the Capital gain field, the portion qualifying for capital gain treatment is also calculated.
Distribution code
Enter the code from Form 1099-R, box 7 that identifies the type of distribution received, or use the fieldview to make your selection. ExacTax/1041 uses only code A (for preparing Form 4972) and code D (for preparing Form 8960). The entry of any other code does not affect the calculation on the federal return, but may be used for state returns.
Other
Enter the current actuarial value attributable to the distribution received in the current year. This amount transfers to the applicable line on Form 4972, Part III. If the distribution is made to more than one person, enter the percentage of the annuity contract attributable to the recipient whose data you are currently entering in the field. ExacTax automatically calculates the lump-sum distribution tax for multiple recipients. If the distribution is not made to more than one person, leave this field blank.
Percent of total distribution
Enter the percentage received by the taxpayer if this is a total distribution that is distributed to more than one person. ExacTax automatically calculates the lump-sum distribution tax for multiple recipients. If the distribution is not made to more than one person, leave this field blank.
Form 4972 - Lump-Sum Distributions Tax
Entire distribution from qualified pension, profit sharing, or stock plan
Enter 1 for Yes or 2 for No to indicate if this distribution was the plan participant’s entire balance from the qualified plan. If you enter No, you cannot use Form 4972.
Part of the distribution rolled over
Enter 1 for Yes or 2 for No to indicate if any part of this distribution was rolled over into another qualified plan. If you enter Yes, you cannot use Form 4972.
Distribution paid to a death beneficiary
Enter 1 for Yes or 2 for No to indicate if this distribution was paid to a beneficiary of a plan participant who died after reaching age 59½ or who was born before 1936.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
80
Note: If you enter No in both the Distribution paid to a death beneficiary and Plan participant born before 1936 and participant for at least 5 years prior to the distribution fields, you cannot use Form 4972.
Plan participant born before 1936 and participant for at least 5 years prior to the distribution
Enter 1 for Yes or 2 for No to indicate if the plan participant who received this distribution was born before January 2, 1936, and was in the plan at least five years before the year of distribution.
Note: If you answered No in both the Distribution paid to a death beneficiary and Plan participant born before 1936 and participant for at least 5 years prior to the distribution fields, you cannot use Form 4972.
Form 4972 used by participant in a prior year
Enter 1 for Yes or 2 for No to indicate if Form 4972 was used after 1986 for a previous distribution. If you enter Yes, you cannot use Form 4972.
Form 4972 used by beneficiary in a prior year
Enter 1 for Yes, 2 for No, or leave this field blank if Form 4972 is not applicable, if this distribution is being paid to a beneficiary who used Form 4972 for a previous distribution from a plan participant after 1986. If you enter Yes, you cannot use Form 4972.
Elect to include net unrealized appreciation in income
Enter information to elect to include unrealized appreciation on employer securities, shown in 1099-R, box 6, in income. ExacTax automatically prints the election with the return.
Death benefit exclusion
If the client is the beneficiary of a deceased employee’s pension and has received a death benefit exclusion, enter the exclusion amount in this field. The lesser of the amount in this field or $5,000 is used in the calculation of the taxable pension distribution.
Federal estate tax attributable to lump-sum distribution
Enter the amount of federal estate tax paid on this lump-sum distribution. If completing Part II, ExacTax decreases the capital gain amount by the applicable estate tax.

Form [26A] - Income and Capital Asset Sales
Overview
Use this form to enter information for income items. Also use this input form to complete Form 1116 for foreign-earned interest and dividend income.
Income
Interest income
Enter both U.S. and foreign source income. ExacTax uses U.S. federal and state interest income information from Forms 1099-INT and 1099-OID to complete the applicable interest income line on Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227. Use the field to enter multiple payers and codes to properly classify the interest income. If you do not want the payers' names proforma'd and special percentages or codes are not needed for federal or state processing, enter the amount directly on the input form. The following information describes how entries in the field affect the calculation of the federal and state tax returns.
F/S: Use this field only if you are preparing multiple-state tax returns. For multiple-state tax returns, make duplicate line entries of an interest item for each state as necessary, with a different postal code for each entry. In the F/S field, enter S for all but one of the duplicate line entries. The federal product disregards entries coded S. Enter F in the F/S field if the item is applicable only to the federal return.
Type Code: Enter a code to identify interest income that is an adjustment to an interest amount (such as nominee or accrued interest).
If an item of interest income requires an adjustment, enter the total amount received on one line, and enter the adjustment amount on a separate line in the same column with type code 3, 4, 5, or 6. Enter the adjustment as a positive amount.
Corpus: Enter a percentage (XXX.XXXX) if an item is entirely or partially allocable to corpus rather than to income.
Payer: Enter the payer's name. A custom fieldview is available.
Interest Amount: Enter taxable interest income amounts and adjustments to interest amounts from Forms 1099-INT and 1099-OID to complete Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227. Do not enter tax-exempt interest in this field.
Tax Exempt: Enter total tax-exempt interest amounts, including interest income attributable to private activity bonds issued after 8/7/86. Do not enter tax-exempt interest in the Interest Amount field.
Private Act Bond: Enter interest income attributable to private activity bonds issued after 8/7/86. Amounts entered in this field are used only for Schedule I calculations. You must also enter the amount in the Tax Exempt field for Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227 purposes.
Early W/D Penalty: Enter the early withdrawal penalty amount reported on Form 1099-INT. ExacTax transfers this amount to the applicable other deduction line on Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227.
Inv Exp: Enter the investment expenses reported on Form 1099-INT. ExacTax transfers this amount to Form 4952, line 5.
Fed / State W/H: Enter withholding amounts reported on Form 1099-INT. You may enter both federal and state withholding in this field. ExacTax transfers federal withholding amounts entered here to the applicable payment
2016 Fiduciary Manual
87
line on Form 1041, 1041-QFT, or 1040NR. State withholding amounts transfer to the applicable tax deduction line on Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227 and the applicable payment line of the state return.
Note: State withholding is not part of the federal tax deduction if the Deduct sales taxes instead of state estimates and state withholding field is marked on Form Deduct in the Deductions folder.
US Govt Oblig ($ or %): Make an entry if any portion of the interest income is attributable to U.S. government obligations. Note that this field is applicable only for interest items entered in the Interest Amount field. ExacTax disregards a US Govt Oblig ($ or %) entry for items entered in the Tax Exempt field.
Notes
You can enter a dollar amount or a percentage in this field. To enter a percentage, use a decimal point to enter a positive amount between 0.000 and 100.000. Otherwise, enter a dollar amount without cents. Either % or $ displays as part of the entry.
Dollar amount entries in the US Govt Oblig and InState Source fields should not exceed the amount entered in the Interest Amount field.
Percentage entries in the US Govt Oblig and InState Source fields should not exceed 100.
Do not use the F/S field for U.S. government obligations.
InState Muni ($ or %): For state processing, make an entry to indicate the portion of the amount entered in the Tax Exempt field that is nontaxable to the integrated state or the state indicated in the Postal Code field. Note that this field is applicable only for interest items entered in the Tax Exempt field. ExacTax disregards an InState Muni ($ or %) entry for items entered in the Interest Amount field.
Note: You can enter a dollar amount or a percentage in this field. To enter a percentage, use a decimal point to enter a positive amount between 0.000 and 100.000. Otherwise, enter a dollar amount without cents. Either % or $ displays as part of the entry. Dollar amount entries should not exceed the amount entered in the Tax Exempt field.
InState Source ($ or %): Make an entry if any portion of the taxable interest item is in-state source income for the integrated state or the state indicated in the Postal Code field. Leave this field blank if none of the interest amount is in-state source income. ExacTax disregards an InState Source ($ or %) entry for items entered in the Tax Exempt field.

You can enter a dollar amount or a percentage in this field. To enter a percentage, use a decimal point to enter a positive amount between 0.000 and 100.000. Otherwise, enter a dollar amount without cents. Either % or $ displays as part of the entry.
Dollar amount entries in the US Govt Oblig and InState Source fields should not exceed the amount entered in the Interest Amount field.
Percentage entries in the US Govt Oblig and Instate Source fields should not exceed 100.
Postal Code: Enter a state postal code unless you are not processing a state return. When processing two or more state returns, make duplicate line entries for those interest items for which different information must be entered for each state. For example, a different InState Muni ($ or %) or InState Source ($ or %) may be required for each state. Enter a postal code to direct each line entry to a particular state return. When using duplicate line entries, remember to enter S in the F/S field for all but one of the duplicate entries. The federal product disregards the state-only entries.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
88
Note: When processing a multiple-state tax return, the duplicate line entry is not always necessary. Enter a single line entry if only one state return requires information, such as InState Muni ($ or %).
State Use: The codes available in this field are specific to the state code entered in the Postal Code field. If a state postal code was not entered, or if state use codes are not applicable to the state postal code entered, the field is disabled. Enter a code, if applicable, for special processing on the ExacTax/1041 state return.
Do Not Proforma: Enter X to delete the item on next year's proforma.
Foreign Interest Income
If you enter data for foreign accounts in this field, ExacTax automatically completes Form 1116 with all the information necessary to calculate Form 1116. Edit or add information to Form 1116, as applicable. The following table lists the fields on Form 1116 that ExacTax completes automatically, as well as the treatment of the information on Form 1116.
Form 1116 fields automatically completed Form 1116
Category of income Passive Income
Name of country Various
Foreign gross income Total taxable interest income
Date paid or accrued Various
In U.S. dollars - taxes withheld on interest Total foreign taxes paid
The following information describes how the entries in the field affect the calculation of the federal and state tax returns.
Foreign Amount: Use this field only when the amount of foreign source income used to calculate the foreign tax credit is different from the amount entered in the Interest Amount field on the same line. When this field is blank and taxes paid are entered in the Foreign Tax Paid field, ExacTax uses the amount entered in the Interest Amount field as foreign source income for Form 1116 purposes.
Foreign Tax Paid: Enter the amount of foreign taxes paid on foreign interest income. ExacTax uses the amount entered here to calculate Form 1116.
X if Foreign: ExacTax automatically marks this field when an amount is entered in the Foreign Amount or Foreign Tax Paid field. You may also mark this field if the amount entered in the Interest Amount field is foreign, but there is no foreign tax paid. When this field is marked, the amount is considered to be foreign and is transferred to Form 1116 and included in the calculation of the foreign tax credit. This indicator may also be manually added or removed.
Note: To claim a deduction for foreign taxes rather than a credit, enter X in the Report all foreign tax as a deduction field on Form OthCr.
Seller financed mortgage interest income
Use the field to enter the interest income earned from any seller-financed mortgages. The following information describes how the entries in the field affect the calculation of the federal and state tax returns.
F/S: Use this field only if you are preparing multiple-state tax returns. For multiple-state tax returns, make duplicate line entries of an interest item for each state as necessary, with a different postal code for each entry. In the F/S field, enter S for all but one of the duplicate line entries. The federal product disregards entries coded S. Enter F in the F/S field if the item is applicable only to the federal return.
2016 Fiduciary Manual

Postal Code: Enter a state postal code unless you are not processing a state return.
When processing two or more returns, make duplicate line entries for those seller-financed mortgage interest items for which different information must be entered for each state.
Enter a postal code to direct each line entry to a particular state return. When using duplicate line entries, remember to enter S in the F/S field for all but one of the duplicate entries. The federal product disregards the state-only entries.
State Use: The codes available in this field are specific to the state code entered in the Postal Code field. If a state postal code was not entered, or if state use codes are not applicable to the state postal code entered, the field is disabled.

InState Source ($ or %): Make an entry if any portion of the interest item is in-state source income for the integrated state or the state indicated in the Postal Code field. Leave this field blank if none of the amount is in-state source income.
Note: You can enter a dollar amount or a percentage in this field. To enter a percentage, use a decimal point to enter a positive amount between 0.000 and 100.000.

Form [26B] - Income
Overview
Use this form to enter information for income items. Also use this input form to complete Form 1116 for foreign-earned interest and dividend income.
Dividends
Enter federal and state dividend information from Forms 1099-DIV to complete the applicable dividend line on Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227. Use the field to enter multiple payers and codes to properly classify the dividend income. If you do not want the payers' names proforma'd and special percentages or codes are not needed for federal or state processing, enter the amounts directly on the input form. The following information describes how entries in the field affect the calculation of the federal and state tax returns.
F/S: Use this field only if you are processing multiple-state tax returns. For multiple-state tax returns, make duplicate line entries of a dividend item for each state as necessary, with a different postal code for each entry. In the F/S field, enter S for all but one of the duplicate line entries. The federal product disregards entries coded S. Enter an F in the F/S field if the item is applicable only to the federal return.
Type Code: Enter a code to indicate that the income item is a nominee adjustment amount. If an item of dividend income requires a nominee adjustment, enter the total amount received on one line, and then enter the nominee amount on a separate line in the same column with type code 3. Enter the nominee adjustment as a positive amount.
Corpus: Enter a percentage (XXX.XXXX) if an item is entirely or partially allocable to corpus rather than to income.
Payer: Enter the payer's name.
Ordinary Dividend: Enter ordinary dividend amounts from Forms 1099-DIV or similar statements to complete the applicable line on Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227. Do not enter tax-exempt dividends in this field.
Qualified Dividend: Enter the amount of dividends that qualify for long-term capital gain rates from Forms 1099-DIV to complete the applicable line on Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227. Enter the entire ordinary dividend amount, including qualified dividends, in the Ordinary Dividend field. Do not enter tax-exempt dividends in this field.
Total Cap Gain Dist: Enter total capital gain distribution amounts from Form 1099-DIV or similar statements to complete Schedule D, line 9, column (f).
1250: Enter unrecaptured section 1250 capital gain distribution amounts from Form 1099-DIV or similar statements.
1202: Section 1202 gains reported in Form 1099-DIV, box 2d may or may not qualify for the exclusion depending on the shareholder's holding period. Enter 100 percent of section 1202 gains from Form 1099-DIV and if they qualify for the exclusion, enter a code in the 1202 Code field. Enter the description to print with the exclusion on Schedule D in the Corporation related to excluded 1202 stock sale: Reported on 1099-DIV field on this form.
1202 Code: Use this field to distinguish whether the 1202 gain qualifies for the 50-percent, 60-percent, 75-percent, or 100-percent exclusion. Leave this field blank if the gain does not qualify for the exclusion.
28%: Enter 28-percent capital gain distribution amounts from Form 1099-DIV or similar statements. ExacTax prints this information on the Schedule D 28% Rate Gain Worksheet.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
92
Tax Exempt: Enter total tax-exempt dividend amounts, including dividend income attributable to private activity bonds issued after 8/7/86. Do not enter tax-exempt dividends in the Ordinary Dividend or Qualified Dividend fields.
Private Act Bond: Enter dividend income attributable to private activity bonds issued after 8/7/86. Amounts entered in this field are used only for Schedule I calculations. You must also enter the amount in the Tax Exempt field for Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227 purposes.
Inv Exp: Enter the investment expenses reported on Form 1099-DIV. ExacTax transfers this amount to Form 4952, line 5.
Fed / State W/H: Enter withholding amounts reported on Form 1099-DIV. You may enter both federal and state withholding in this form. ExacTax transfers federal withholding amounts entered here to the applicable payment line on Form 1041 or 1041-QFT. State withholding amounts transfer to the applicable tax deduction line on Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227 and also to the applicable line of the state return.
Note: State withholding is not part of the federal tax deduction if the Deduct sales taxes instead of state estimates and state withholding field is marked on Form Deduct.
US Govt Oblig ($ or %): Make an entry if any portion of the dividend income is attributable to U.S. government obligations. Note that this field is applicable only for dividend items entered in the Ordinary Dividend field. ExacTax disregards a US Govt Oblig ($ or %) entry for items entered in the Tax Exempt field.
Notes
You can enter a dollar amount or a percentage in this field. To enter a percentage, use a decimal point to enter a positive amount between 0.000 and 100.000. Otherwise, enter a dollar amount without cents. Either % or $ displays as part of the entry.
Dollar amount entries in the US Govt Oblig and InState Source fields should not exceed the amount entered in the Ordinary Dividend field.
Percentage entries in the US Govt Oblig and InState Source fields should not exceed 100.
Do not use the F/S field for U.S. government obligations.
InState Muni ($ or %): For state processing, make an entry to indicate the portion of the municipal dividend income (items entered in the Tax Exempt field) that is nontaxable to the integrated state or the state indicated in the Postal Code field. Note that this field is applicable only to dividend items entered in the Tax Exempt field. ExacTax disregards an InState Muni ($ or %) entry for items entered in the Ordinary Dividend field.
Note: You can enter a dollar amount or a percentage in this field. To enter a percentage, use a decimal point to enter a positive amount between 0.000 and 100.000. Otherwise, enter a dollar amount without cents. Either % or $ displays as part of the entry. Dollar amount entries should not exceed the amount entered in the Tax Exempt field.
InState Source ($ or %): Make an entry if any portion of the dividend item is in-state source income for the integrated state or the state indicated in the Postal Code field. Leave this field blank if none of the Ordinary Dividend amount is in-state source income. ExacTax disregards an InState Source ($ or %) entry for items entered in the Tax Exempt field.

Dollar amount entries in the US Govt Oblig and InState Source fields should not exceed the amount entered in the Ordinary Dividend field.
Percentage entries in the US Govt Oblig and InState Source fields should not exceed 100.
Use separate line entries for the payer if the instate source amount or percentage is different for ordinary dividends versus total capital gain distributions.
Postal Code: Enter a state postal code unless you are not processing a state return.
When processing two or more state returns, make duplicate line entries for those dividend items for which you must enter different information for each state. For example, a different InState Muni ($ or %) or InState Source ($ or %) may be required for each state.
Enter a postal code for each line entry to a particular state return. When using duplicate line entries, remember to enter S in the F/S field for all but one of the duplicate entries. The federal product disregards the state-only entries.
Note: When processing a multiple-state tax return, the duplicate line entry is not always necessary. Enter a single line entry if only one state return requires information, such as InState Muni ($ or %).
State Use: The codes available in this field are specific to the state code entered in the Postal Code field. If a state postal code was not entered, or if state use codes are not applicable to the state postal code entered, the field is disabled. Enter a code, if applicable, for special processing on the ExacTax/1041 state return.
Do Not Proforma: Enter X in this field to delete the item on next year's proforma.
Foreign dividends income
If you enter data from foreign sources in this field, ExacTax automatically completes Form 1116 with all the information necessary to calculate Form 1116. Edit or add information to Form 1116, as applicable. The following table lists the fields on Form 1116 that ExacTax completes automatically and the subsequent treatment of the information on Form 1116.
Form 1116 fields automatically completed Form 1116

The following information describes how entries in the field affect the calculation of the federal and state tax returns.
Foreign Ord Div: Use this field only when the amount of foreign source income used to calculate the foreign tax credit is different from the amount entered in the Ordinary Dividend field on the same line. When this field is blank and taxes paid are entered in the Foreign Tax Paid field, ExacTax uses the amount entered in the Ordinary Dividend field as foreign source income for Form 1116 purposes.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
94
Foreign Qual Div: Use this field only when the amount of foreign source income used to calculate the foreign tax credit is different from the amount entered in the Qualified Dividend field on the same line. When this field is blank and taxes paid are entered in the Foreign Tax Paid field, ExacTax uses the amount entered in the Qualified Dividend field as foreign source income for Form 1116 purposes.
Foreign Cap Gain: Use this field only when the amount of foreign source income used to calculate the foreign tax credit is different from the amount entered in the Total Cap Gain Dist field on the same line. When this field is blank and taxes paid are entered in the Foreign Tax Paid field, ExacTax uses the amount entered in the Total Cap Gain Dist field as foreign source income for Form 1116 purposes.
Foreign Tax Paid: Enter the amount of foreign taxes paid on foreign dividend income. ExacTax uses the amount entered here to calculate Form 1116.
X if Foreign: ExacTax automatically marks this field when an amount is entered in the Foreign Ord Div, Foreign Qual Div, or Foreign Cap Gain fields or in the Foreign Tax Paid field. You may also mark this field if the amount entered in the Ordinary Dividend, Qualified Dividend, or Total Cap Gain Dist fields are foreign but there is no foreign tax paid. When this field is marked, the amount is considered to be foreign, transfers to Form 1116, and is included in the calculation of the foreign tax credit. This indicator may also be manually added or removed.
Note: To claim a deduction for foreign taxes rather than a credit, enter X in the Report all foreign tax as a deduction field on Form OthCr in the Credits folder.
Extraordinary dividends for simple trusts
This field is applicable only to simple trusts. Enter the amount of extraordinary dividends allocated to corpus and included on Form 1041, Page 1, line 2. Enter the total dividends, including this amount, in the Dividends field on this form or Forms K1 and K1T. ExacTax excludes this amount from the calculation of Form 1041, Page 2, Schedule B, line 1.
Short-term capital gain distributions
Enter the amount considered as dividends for tax purposes but short-term capital gain for accounting income purposes. Enter the total taxable dividends, including this amount, in the Dividends field on this form or Forms K1 and K1T. ExacTax subtracts this amount from dividends and adds it to short-term capital gains in the calculation of accounting income.
Note: ExacTax uses this information to calculate fiduciary accounting income only. An amount entered in this field does not transfer to Schedule D, and it does not change the amount ExacTax calculates for distributable net income.
Other income
Enter other items of income not reported on Form 1099R, W-2, or W-2G and not included on any other input form, as well as federal and state taxes withheld on these items.
Note: Enter pension, railroad retirement, annuity, and other Form 1099R reported income information on Form 1099R. Enter wages on Form W2, gambling winnings on Form W2G, and miscellaneous income on Form 1099M.
The following information describes fields in this field and how to use them for processing state returns.
F/S: Use this field only if you are preparing multiple state tax returns. For multiple state tax returns, make duplicate line entries of another income item for each state as necessary, with a different postal code for each entry. In the F/S field, enter S for all but one of the duplicate line entries. The federal product disregards entries coded S. Enter F in the F/S field if the item is applicable only to the federal return.
Corpus: Enter a percentage (XXX.XXXX) if an item is entirely or partially allocable to corpus rather than to income.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
95
Investment Income: Enter X to include the income as investment income on Form 4952 and on Schedule K-1.
Description: Enter a description of the income. A custom fieldview is available.
Amount: Enter the amount of other income.
Federal W/H: Enter the federal withholding amount. This information transfers to the applicable payment line on Form 1041, 1041-QFT, or 1040NR.
State W/H: Enter the state withholding amount. This amount transfers to the applicable tax deduction line on Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227 and, also, to the applicable line of the state return.
Note: State withholding is not part of the federal tax deduction if the Taxes deduction: Deduct sales taxes instead of state estimates and state withholding field is marked on Form Deduct.
Postal Code: Enter a state postal code unless you are not processing a state return.
City Code: Enter the three-character city code for the city in which the activity is located. Only the ExacTax/1041-NY application uses this field.
State Use: The codes available in this field are specific to the state code entered in the Postal Code field. If a state postal code was not entered, only the tax refund codes are available. Enter a code as applicable for special processing on the ExacTax/1041 state return.
Nontaxable income: Treat difference
By default, ExacTax considers the difference between the Form 1099R gross distribution and taxable amount as nontaxable income, which affects the return as follows:
Allocates a portion of indirect expense to this category of income, unless the category is excluded in the Allocation of Indirect Expenses section on Form Allocate.
Answers Yes to Form 1041, Page 2, Other Information, Question 1.
To change the default, delete the X from this field.
Nontaxable income: Other
Enter information that pertains to nontaxable income (other than tax-exempt interest and dividends) received in the current year. This amount is used for the calculation of nontaxable income on Form 5227, the calculation of tax-exempt income on Form 1041, Page 2, Other Information, Question 1, and is included in accounting income.
Note: Tax-exempt income includes tax-exempt interest and dividends, as well as nontaxable income for the allocation of expenses on the Allocation of Deductions for Tax-Exempt Income Worksheets 1 and 2. To exclude nontaxable income from the allocation of indirect expenses, mark the Nontaxable income field in the Allocation of Indirect Expenses section on Form Allocate.

Form [27A] - Capital Asset Sales
Overview
Use this form to enter information for income items.
Schedule D / Form 8949 - Capital Gain / Loss Information
Capital gains or (losses)
Enter sale information of capital assets that are not sold on installment. Enter passive and nonpassive transactions as well. Some of the fields in the field are described as follows:
Type: Enter the appropriate code to indicate the asset type. If you enter C in the Type column with long-term dates, ExacTax defaults the holding period to long-term and includes the gain or loss in the 28-percent rate calculations. If you enter V, X, Y, or Z in the Type column with long-term dates, ExacTax defaults the holding period to long-term with 28-percent rates and enters a subtraction line for the 50-percent, 60-percent, 75-percent, or 100-percent exclusion on Form 8949.
Tangible: Enter X to designate an asset as tangible property. ExacTax uses this information for processing state returns that exclude sales of intangible assets.
8949 Box:
ExacTax uses this field to determine which unit of Form 8949 to report the transaction.
Code Description
1 Box A or D - Reported on 1099-B showing basis was reported to the IRS
2 Box B or E - Reported on 1099-B showing basis was not reported to the IRS
3 Box C or F - Not reported on 1099-B
4 Reported directly on Schedule D
Note: ExacTax/1041 defaults to 3, Box C treatment when this field is blank. To change the default behavior for all clients, choose Setup > 1041 Fiduciary > Other Return Options button. In the General tab, select an option from the Default for Form Income, Capital gains / losses, Form 8949 transactions drop-down list.
1099B Errors: ExacTax uses this field to identify 1099B errors that were reported to the IRS.
Code Description Form 8949 Adj Code
Blank 1099-B as reported to IRS does not contain errors (default)
1 1099-B Box 2 Type of gain (loss) is incorrect T
2 1099-B Box 1e Cost or other basis reported to the IRS is incorrect B
3 1099-B Box 1e and 2 are incorrect T; B
Description: A custom fieldview is available.
Date Acquired / Sold: The following codes are available if a specific date is not appropriate.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
98
Code Result
I or 999998 Inherited
V or 999999 Various
B Bankrupt
C Continue
T 1099 Tax
W Worthlss
ExacTax treats all but the Inherited code as a short-term holding period. To change the holding period, use the Force field to force the sale to long term.
Notes
If electronically filing this return, IRS Publication 1438 does not accept Various as an entry in the Date sold fields. The word Various or Inherit is acceptable in the Date acquired field. The words 1099 Tax, Bankrupt, Worthlss, or Continue are not accepted in any date fields. You must enter valid text or date, or the return will be rejected.
If ExacTax cannot calculate a holding period (for example, a date field either is blank or marked Various), the field defaults to short-term treatment. Use the Force field to force a different treatment.
Force: ExacTax determines short-term or long-term holding period based on the dates entered in the Date acquired and Date sold fields and enters a code in the Holding Period field. To change the holding period, enter 1 for short-term, 2 for long-term, or 3 to classify as 28-percent rate property in the Force field.
Adj to Gain / Loss: Use these fields to adjust the amounts reported to the IRS on a 1099-B, to report that a 1099-S (or substitute statement) is incorrect, to exclude or postpone a capital gain, to report a disallowed loss, etc.
Notes
An Adj Code must be entered for every amount in the Adj to Gain / Loss column.
The Gain or Loss column includes the Adj to Gain / Loss column to arrive at the taxable gain / loss amount. Review of the Gain or Loss column before you enter the adjustment may help to determine the amount and type (positive or negative) of adjustment needed to get to the correct taxable gain / loss.
Adj Code: Use this field to enter the applicable code for the adjustment amount entered in the Adj to Gain / Loss field. All adjustment amounts reported on the form must have an adjustment code.
The codes you can enter in this field are listed in the following table and in the fieldview.
Code Description
N Received 1099-B or 1099-S as a nominee for actual owner
D Accrued market discount in box 1g
Q Sold or exchanged qualified small business stock
X Excluded gain on DC Zone assets or qualified community assets
R Postponed gain (QSB rollover, empowerment zone, etc.)
W Nondeductible loss from a wash sale
2016 Fiduciary Manual
99
Code Description
L Nondeductible loss other than wash sale
E Selling expenses or option premiums not on 1099-B or 1099-S
M Multiple transactions reported on a single row
O Adjustment not explained with any other code
EW Selling expenses and nondeductible wash sale
MN Received 1099 as nominee for actual owner
MD Accrued market discount
MX Excluded gain DC Zone/Qualified community assets
MR Postponed gain on rollover
MW Nondeductible loss from wash sale
ML Nondeductible loss other than wash sale
ME Selling expenses/option premium not on 1099
MO Adjustment not explained with any other code
Gain or Loss: ExacTax automatically calculates the gain or loss for the sale based on the sales price, cost / basis, and amounts entered in the Adj to Gain / Loss field. Note that you cannot modify this column, as ExacTax calculates the column.
Note: The Gain or Loss column calculates before the Adj to Gain / Loss is entered, so the information in the column may be used to determine the amount and type (positive or negative) of adjustment needed to get to the correct taxable gain / loss.
Postal Code: Enter a state postal code unless you are not processing a state return. If you enter the two-character postal code, certain state applications determine whether the state application should include this sale in the state calculations.
State Use: The codes available in this field are specific to the state code entered in the Postal Code field. If a state postal code was not entered, or if state use codes are not applicable to the state postal code entered, the field is disabled. Enter a code, if applicable, for special processing on an ExacTax/1041 state return.
Note: Enter current-year installment sales on Form Sale and prior-year installment sales on Form InstPY. You can find these forms in the Income, Business, Farm, K1 1065, 1120S, K1 1041, Rent & Royalty, and Personal Sale folders.
Form / Unit: Enter the form and unit number of the activity if this is related to a passive activity. Once you enter the form or schedule in the Form field, enter the corresponding unit number or use the fieldview. This fieldview shows the unit numbers and description of the desired forms or schedules that exist for the client.
Note: To include the gain or loss on Form 8582, you must enter B in the Type field as well as the form and unit of the passive activity in the Form and Unit fields.

Form [27B] - Capital Asset Sales
Overview
Use this form to enter information for income items.
Schedule D / Form 8949 - Capital Gain / Loss Information
Capital gains or (losses)
Enter sale information of capital assets that are not sold on installment. Enter passive and nonpassive transactions as well. Some of the fields in the field are described as follows:
Type: Enter the appropriate code to indicate the asset type. If you enter C in the Type column with long-term dates, ExacTax defaults the holding period to long-term and includes the gain or loss in the 28-percent rate calculations. If you enter V, X, Y, or Z in the Type column with long-term dates, ExacTax defaults the holding period to long-term with 28-percent rates and enters a subtraction line for the 50-percent, 60-percent, 75-percent, or 100-percent exclusion on Form 8949.
Tangible: Enter X to designate an asset as tangible property. ExacTax uses this information for processing state returns that exclude sales of intangible assets.
8949 Box:
ExacTax uses this field to determine which unit of Form 8949 to report the transaction.
Code Description
1 Box A or D - Reported on 1099-B showing basis was reported to the IRS
2 Box B or E - Reported on 1099-B showing basis was not reported to the IRS
3 Box C or F - Not reported on 1099-B
4 Reported directly on Schedule D
1099B Errors: ExacTax uses this field to identify 1099B errors that were reported to the IRS.
Code Description Form 8949 Adj Code
Blank 1099-B as reported to IRS does not contain errors (default)
1 1099-B Box 2 Type of gain (loss) is incorrect T
2 1099-B Box 1e Cost or other basis reported to the IRS is incorrect B
3 1099-B Box 1e and 2 are incorrect T; B
Description: A custom fieldview is available.
Date Acquired / Sold: The following codes are available if a specific date is not appropriate.
Code Result
I or 999998 Inherited
V or 999999 Various
B Bankrupt
2016 Fiduciary Manual
102
Code Result
C Continue
T 1099 Tax
W Worthlss
ExacTax treats all but the Inherited code as a short-term holding period. To change the holding period, use the Force field to force the sale to long term.
Notes
If electronically filing this return, IRS Publication 1438 does not accept Various as an entry in the Date sold fields. The word Various or Inherit is acceptable in the Date acquired field. The words 1099 Tax, Bankrupt, Worthlss, or Continue are not accepted in any date fields. You must enter valid text or date, or the return will be rejected.
If ExacTax cannot calculate a holding period (for example, a date field either is blank or marked Various), the field defaults to short-term treatment. Use the Force field to force a different treatment.
Force: ExacTax determines short-term or long-term holding period based on the dates entered in the Date acquired and Date sold fields and enters a code in the Holding Period field. To change the holding period, enter 1 for short-term, 2 for long-term, or 3 to classify as 28-percent rate property in the Force field.
Adj to Gain / Loss: Use these fields to adjust the amounts reported to the IRS on a 1099-B, to report that a 1099-S (or substitute statement) is incorrect, to exclude or postpone a capital gain, to report a disallowed loss, etc.
Notes
An Adj Code must be entered for every amount in the Adj to Gain / Loss column.
The Gain or Loss column includes the Adj to Gain / Loss column to arrive at the taxable gain / loss amount. Review of the Gain or Loss column before you enter the adjustment may help to determine the amount and type (positive or negative) of adjustment needed to get to the correct taxable gain / loss.
Adj Code: Use this field to enter the applicable code for the adjustment amount entered in the Adj to Gain / Loss field. All adjustment amounts reported on the form must have an adjustment code.
The codes you can enter in this field are listed in the following table and in the fieldview.
Code Description
N Received 1099-B or 1099-S as a nominee for actual owner
D Accrued market discount in box 1g
Q Sold or exchanged qualified small business stock
X Excluded gain on DC Zone assets or qualified community assets
R Postponed gain (QSB rollover, empowerment zone, etc.)
W Nondeductible loss from a wash sale
L Nondeductible loss other than wash sale
E Selling expenses or option premiums not on 1099-B or 1099-S
M Multiple transactions reported on a single row
O Adjustment not explained with any other code

MR Postponed gain on rollover
MW Nondeductible loss from wash sale
ML Nondeductible loss other than wash sale
ME Selling expenses/option premium not on 1099
MO Adjustment not explained with any other code
Gain or Loss: ExacTax automatically calculates the gain or loss for the sale based on the sales price, cost / basis, and amounts entered in the Adj to Gain / Loss field. Note that you cannot modify this column, as ExacTax calculates the column.
Note: The Gain or Loss column calculates before the Adj to Gain / Loss is entered, so the information in the column may be used to determine the amount and type (positive or negative) of adjustment needed to get to the correct taxable gain / loss.
Postal Code: Enter a state postal code unless you are not processing a state return. If you enter the two-character postal code, certain state applications determine whether the state application should include this sale in the state calculations.
State Use: The codes available in this field are specific to the state code entered in the Postal Code field. If a state postal code was not entered, or if state use codes are not applicable to the state postal code entered, the field is disabled. Enter a code, if applicable, for special processing on an ExacTax/1041 state return.
Note: Enter current-year installment sales on Form Sale and prior-year installment sales on Form InstPY. You can find these forms in the Income, Business, Farm, K1 1065, 1120S, K1 1041, Rent & Royalty, and Personal Sale folders.
Form / Unit: Enter the form and unit number of the activity if this is related to a passive activity. Once you enter the form or schedule in the Form field, enter the corresponding unit number or use the fieldview. This fieldview shows the unit numbers and description of the desired forms or schedules that exist for the client.
Note: To include the gain or loss on Form 8582, you must enter B in the Type field as well as the form and unit of the passive activity in the Form and Unit fields.

Form [28A] - Business Profit or Loss Page 1
Overview
Use this form to enter Schedule C information.
General Information
Use this section to enter general information that pertains to Schedule C, Profit or Loss From Business.
Unit
ExacTax automatically enters the next available number. Override this number if necessary, but do not leave the field blank. ExacTax uses this information to gather and coordinate information for the business unit activity. For example, the activity unit number enables ExacTax to link information (such as income or loss, sales, credits, and assets detail) for the passive calculations.
Principal business or profession
The principal business or profession you enter in this field prints on Schedule C, line A and is used as the unit description for depreciation, the state allocation spreadsheet, and for the folders block.
Name
Enter the business name.
Corpus
If all or part of the profit or loss from this activity is allocated to corpus rather than income, enter the percentage that is allocable to corpus in XXX.XXXX format.
State
If you process a state return and the income for this activity is considered source income for that state, enter a state postal code for proper state processing. If you leave this field blank, none of the income for this activity will be considered source income for that state.
Business: Code / description
Enter the appropriate principal business or professional activity code in the field provided or use the fieldview to make the selection. Note that this is a multiple-level fieldview; make two selections before the code is entered in the field.
Address
Enter the business address in the fields provided.
Accounting method / Description for other
Enter the code that represents the method of accounting or use the fieldview to make the selection. If you enter code 3 in this field, you must also complete the Description for other field. The information prints on Schedule C, line F next to the Other (specify) checkbox.
Material participation
2016 Fiduciary Manual
108
Enter 2 if the trust did not materially participate in this activity. The default is 1 for Yes.
Note: If you enter 2, ExacTax considers this activity passive and automatically defaults to a passive activity code of 1. The passive activity code is entered on Form C-2.
Began or acquired business this year
Enter X if the client started or acquired the business this year.
City code / State use code
Enter the three-character code for the place where the activity is located. Only the New York and Oklahoma state returns use this code.
Note: For New York returns, enter YON to identify the information as derived from sources within the City of Yonkers. For nonresident or part-year resident returns, ExacTax uses this information to complete Form Y-206, City of Yonkers Nonresident Fiduciary Earning Tax Return. City of New York and Yonkers source income also appears on Form IT-205-A, Schedule 4, for the calculation of full-year or part-year resident city taxes.
Disposition of activity
Enter 1 to delete this activity on next year's proforma. This option also releases all suspended losses if this was a passive activity. Enter 2 if this is a passive activity sold on an installment basis. ExacTax treats the disposition as follows:
If this is a passive activity with passive-loss carryovers, ExacTax does not delete the activity for proforma purposes and allows losses based on the ratio of current-year gain recognized divided by unrecognized gain as of the beginning of the current year.
If this is a passive activity with no passive carryovers, ExacTax does not proforma this form or any other forms related to this activity, but proformas the related Form Sale and/or InstPY to next year's Form InstPY.
Note: If this activity has assets, you must move or transfer those assets to another activity before proforma.
Allocation
To open the state allocation spreadsheet, the following conditions must be present in the current client.
The client being processed must have a state return attached.
You must have Input Form Data Entry view selected (choose View > Input Form).
Data must exist in the Principal business or profession field on Form C.
You can use two methods (percentage or amount) to allocate federal net income to the applicable states displayed in the state allocation spreadsheet.
Note: Amount fields applicable to one state may not be applicable to another state. Amounts that do not apply to a particular state are disabled (shaded).
Percentage: Enter a percentage in XXX.XXXX format in the first field available in the state allocation spreadsheet. Select the state to which this applies from the drop-down list. Click the Apply button. ExacTax automatically calculates the amounts attributable to that state and displays the amounts in the spreadsheet. The percentage entered for that
2016 Fiduciary Manual
109
particular state appears below the state name. If enabled, specific item amounts can be changed (overwritten) on the spreadsheet from the calculated amount.
Amount: When a percentage of the federal amount does not apply, you can enter specific item amounts, if enabled, in the spreadsheet for the applicable state. Zero (0) is a valid entry and prevents the state amount from defaulting to the federal calculated amount. If you leave a field blank, the federal amount, if present, is used in the state calculation.
You can print the state allocation spreadsheet in a report format for future reference. Click the Print or Preview button on the lower portion of the spreadsheet. If licensed, you can also print to FileCabinet CS.
Income
Use this section to enter the gross receipts or sales, returns and allowances, and other income that correspond to Schedule C, Part I.
Gross receipts or sales
Enter the gross receipts or sales that correspond to Schedule C, Part I.
Note: You may also enter gross receipts for this activity in Form 1099M, located in the Business folder. You may enter information in this field and in Form 1099M.
Form 1099-MISC explanation
Enter information if the total amounts that were reported in box 7 on Form 1099-MISC are more than the total you are reporting on Schedule C, line 1.
Returns and allowances
Enter the returns and allowances that correspond to Schedule C, Part I.
Other income
Use the field to record other income information that transfers to Schedule C, Page 1, line 6. A custom fieldview is available in the field.
Note: You may also enter other income for this activity in Form 1099M, located in the Business folder. You may enter information in this field and in Form 1099M.
Expenses
Use this section to enter information to complete Schedule C, Part II.
Depletion (Force)
Enter an amount if you want to override the calculated depletion from the ExacTax/Oil & Gas module. If you are not using the ExacTax/Oil & Gas module and are entering a working interest directly on Form C, enter the depletion amount in this field. ExacTax does not calculate any limitations or tax preferences based on data entry in this field.
Note: ExacTax allocates this amount to beneficiaries based on the percentages entered in the Depletion field in the View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab. The remaining amount prints on Schedule C, line 12.
Depreciation (Force)
2016 Fiduciary Manual
110
If you retrieve depreciation expense using tax code 813 or manually enter the expense amount in this field, ExacTax uses this amount rather than the amount it calculates on Form 4562.
Note: ExacTax does not separately allocate an amount in this field to beneficiaries. The entire amount is included with the net income or loss calculated for this activity.
Meals and entertainment
Enter 100 percent of the meal expenses. ExacTax calculates the allowable deduction.
Meals
Enter 100 percent of the meals expense for employees that are subject to the hours of service limitations of the Department of Transportation (DOT). ExacTax automatically calculates the allowable deduction. Examples of qualifying employees are: certain air transportation employees, interstate truck and bus operators, railroad employees, and merchant mariners under Coast Guard regulations.
Wages
Enter the amount of wages paid less any allowable employment credits. ExacTax does not automatically allocate the allowable employment credits to the various activities.
Other

Preference items
Enter the alternative minimum tax preference amounts in the field. ExacTax uses this information to complete Schedule I.
Passive Activity Information
Use this section to enter passive activity carryovers.
Passive activity code
Enter the appropriate passive activity code. ExacTax treats entities coded 1 as passive and entities coded 3 as nonpassive. If you enter passive carryovers for entities coded 3, ExacTax considers them to be former passive activities. Income and losses are considered passive or active as follows:
If the current-year net income is less than the prior-year suspended losses, ExacTax reports both prior-year suspended losses and current-year net income on Form 8582.
If the current-year net income is equal to or greater than the prior-year suspended losses, neither amount is reported on Form 8582.
If there is a current-year net loss, only the prior-year suspended losses are reported on Form 8582.
Aggregation group
If this is an aggregated activity, enter the aggregation group number. Units with the same aggregation number are reported as one item on the worksheets for Form 8582. All of the entities in an aggregation must have the same passive activity code.
Carryovers
If ExacTax/1041 was used in the prior year, this information proformas automatically. Otherwise, enter last year’s regular and AMT passive loss carryovers for this activity.
Notes
ExacTax does not use the regular carryovers as a default Alternative Minimum tax (AMT) amount. If there is no difference between the regular and AMT carryover, enter the same amount in both the Regular and AMT fields. ExacTax also uses this information to complete Schedule I and Form 8582, if applicable.
Enter long-term Schedule D amounts net of 28 percent. ExacTax adds the amounts in the 28% rate fields to the amounts in the respective long-term fields. This differs from data entry for gains and losses elsewhere in ExacTax.

Form [31] - Rent and Royalty Property
Overview
Use this form to enter detail information for rental real estate and royalty properties. Both types of properties print on Schedule E, Page 1.
General Information
ExacTax uses the information in this section for classification and calculation purposes.
Unit
ExacTax automatically enters the next available number. Override this number if necessary, but do not leave this field blank. ExacTax uses this information to gather and to coordinate information for the unit activity. For example, the activity unit number enables ExacTax to link information (such as income or loss, sales, credits, and assets detail) for the passive calculations.
Description
ExacTax uses the description you enter in this field as the unit description for depreciation and the state allocation spreadsheet and for the description in the folders block.
Corpus
If all or part of the income or loss from this activity is allocated to corpus rather than to income, enter the percentage that is allocable to corpus in XXX.XXXX format.
State
If you process a state return and the income for this activity is considered source income for that state, enter a state postal code for proper state processing. If you leave this field blank, none of the income for this activity will be considered source income for that state.
Physical address
Enter the physical address of the property (city, state, and ZIP code).
Type
Enter the appropriate type code for the rental real estate property or royalty property. The available codes are listed in the following table.
Code Description Results
1 Single family residence
Schedule E, line 1a and line 2 are completed. ExacTax defaults to 1 = Single Family Residence if this field is blank.
2 Multi-family residence
Schedule E, line 1a and line 2 are completed.
3 Vacation/Short-term Schedule E, line 1a is completed. Line 2a is completed from information on Form Rent-2.
4 Commercial Schedule E, line 1a and line 2 are completed.
5 Land Schedule E, line 1a and line 2 are completed. Property is treated as subject to the net
2016 Fiduciary Manual

Code Description Results
income recharacterization of passive income rules.
6 Royalties Schedule E, line 1a and line 2 are not completed. Property is not subject to passive activity rules.
7 Self-rental Schedule E, line 1a and line 2 are completed. Property is treated as subject to the net income recharacterization of passive income rules.
8 Other Schedule E, line 1a and line 2 are completed.
Notes
Self-rental properties (Code 7) and Land (Code 5), are automatically included in the "Subject to recharacterization rules." The rental income from activities indicated as "Subject to recharacterization rules" is treated as nonpassive income. See IRS Publication 925 for the rules that apply to recharacterization for substantially nondepreciable property (Land) or properties rented to activities with material participation (Self-rental).
Income from Land rental (Code 5) and Royalties (Code 6) is included in investment income on Form 4952, and in nonbusiness income on Form 1045 and the Net Operating Loss Worksheeet.
Ownership percentage, if not 100
If the estate or trust does not own the entire property, enter a percentage representing the estate’s or trust’s ownership. Enter total receipts and expenses for the property. ExacTax applies the ownership percentage to this subtotal and transfers the amounts to Schedule E.
Disposition of activity
Enter 1 to delete this activity on next year’s proforma. This option also releases all suspended losses if this was a passive activity. Enter 2 if this is a passive activity being sold on an installment basis. ExacTax treats the disposition as follows:
If this is a passive activity with passive loss carryovers, ExacTax does not delete the activity for proforma purposes, and allows losses based on the ratio of current-year gain recognized divided by unrecognized gain as of the beginning of the current year.
If this is a passive activity with no passive carryovers, ExacTax does not proforma this form or any other forms related to this activity, but proformas the related Form Sale and/or InstPY to next year’s Form InstPY.
Note: If this activity has assets, you must move or transfer them to another activity before proforma.
Income
Rents and royalties
Enter the gross rent and royalty income for the property.
Note: You may also enter rents and royalty income for this activity on Form 1099M, located in the Rent & Royalty folder. You may enter information in this field and on Form 1099M.
Expenses
Mortgage interest
Enter the amount of mortgage interest paid. ExacTax adds this information to the information in the Refinancing Points section on Form Rent-2 before entering the information on Schedule E.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
118
Other interest
Enter the net amount of other interest to appear on Schedule E, line 13 in the field. A custom fieldview is available.
Depreciation (Force)
If you retrieve depreciation expense using tax code 520 or manually enter it in this field, ExacTax uses this data rather than the amount it calculates on Form 4562.
Note: ExacTax does not separately allocate an amount in this field to beneficiaries. The entire amount is included with the net gain or loss calculated for this activity.
Depletion (Force)
Enter an amount if you want to override the calculated depletion from the ExacTax/Oil & Gas module. If you are not using the ExacTax/Oil & Gas module, and are entering a working interest directly on Form Rent, enter the depletion amount in this field.
ExacTax does not calculate any limitations or tax preferences based on data entry in this field. ExacTax allocates this amount to beneficiaries based on the percentages entered in the Depletion field in View > Beneficiary Information > Federal > Other Allocations. The remaining amount prints on Schedule E, line 18.
Note: You can use tax code 580 to retrieve depletion.
Other expenses
Enter other expenses in this field.

Form [33A] - 1065 and 1120S Pass-Through General and Income
Overview
Use this form to enter the client's Schedule K-1 data from an S Corporation or a partnership. This information transfers to the related 1041 forms and schedules.
Form arrangement
On the left side of each field in the Income section on Form K1, ExacTax includes the Forms 1065 and 1120S, Schedule K-1 line reference numbers, if applicable. The line reference number indicates where on this form you should enter each Schedule K-1 item.
General Information
Unit
ExacTax automatically enters the next available number. Override this number if necessary, but do not leave the field blank. ExacTax uses this information to gather and to coordinate information for the activity unit. For example, the activity unit number enables ExacTax to link information (such as income or loss, sales, credits, and assets detail) for the passive calculations.
Name of entity
ExacTax uses the entity name you enter in this field as the unit description for the state allocation spreadsheet and for the description in the folders block.
Name of activity
Enter a unique activity name for this unit. ExacTax/1041 prints the activity name after the entity name on various forms, worksheets, and statements to help identify this unit from another unit with the same entity name.
State
If you process a state return and the income for this activity is considered source income for that state, enter a state postal code for proper state processing. If you leave this field blank, none of the income for this activity will be considered source income for that state.
Entity: Type
Enter the appropriate entity code or use the fieldview to make the selection. ExacTax uses this code to indicate the type of activity on Schedule E, Page 2. If a code is not entered, ExacTax uses code 1 (partnership) as the default.
Note: Code 4 for publicly traded partnerships determines the tax treatment of the entity. This code supersedes the passive activity code entered on Form K1-3. If you enter code 5, ExacTax does not allow an overall loss on the AMT version of Form 8582.
City or state use code
Enter the three-character code for the activity. Only the New York and Ohio applications use this code.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
121
Notes
For New York returns, enter YON to identify the information as derived from sources within the City of Yonkers. For nonresident or part-year resident returns, ExacTax uses this information to complete Form Y-206, City of Yonkers Nonresident Fiduciary Earning Tax Return.
For New York returns, enter NYC or YON to identify the information as derived from city sources for Form IT-205-A, Schedule 4 for the calculation of full-year or part-year resident city taxes.
For Ohio returns, enter 10A to identify that the farm is over 10 acres in size.
Include depletion on Schedule E, Page 1
Enter X if the depletion expense calculated in the ExacTax/Oil & Gas module for the activity should be reported on Schedule E, Page 1. If this field is blank, ExacTax transfers the depletion expense to Schedule E, Page 2.
Disposition of activity
Enter 1 to delete this activity on next year's proforma. This option also releases all suspended losses if this was a passive activity. Enter 2 if this is a passive activity the client is selling on an installment basis. ExacTax treats the disposition as follows:
If this is a passive activity with passive loss carryovers, ExacTax does not delete the activity for proforma purposes and allows losses based on the ratio of current-year gain recognized divided by unrecognized gain as of the beginning of the current year.
If this is a passive activity with no passive carryovers, ExacTax does not proforma this form or any other forms related to this activity, but proformas the related Forms Sale and/or InstPY to next year's Form InstPY.
Note: If this activity has assets, you must move or transfer them to another activity before proforma.
Income
Enter information in the fields provided using the Income section of the client's Schedule K-1.
Ordinary business income or (loss)
Enter the ordinary income or loss from the activity. ExacTax uses this information with the entry in Passive activity code field on Form K1-3 to determine the income or loss to report on Schedule E, Page 2. If the passive activity code is 3, the ordinary income or loss is considered nonpassive income or loss. If the passive activity code is 1 or 2, the income or loss is considered a passive activity for Schedule E, Page 2.
Net rental real estate income or (loss)
Enter the net income or loss from other real estate activities. ExacTax uses this information to determine the passive income or loss to report on Schedule E, Page 2.
Other net income or (loss)
Enter the net income or loss from other rental activities. ExacTax uses this information to determine the income or loss to report on Schedule E, Page 2. Amounts entered in this field are treated as passive. ExacTax ignores the entry in the Passive activity code field on Form K1-3.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
122
Guaranteed payments to partner
ExacTax classifies guaranteed payments as nonpassive income and enters them in Schedule E, Part II, column (k) along with other nonpassive income. ExacTax ignores the entry in the Passive activity code field on Form K1-3.
Interest income
If no special types of interest income exist and source percentages are not needed for state processing, enter the amount in this field. ExacTax treats any amount entered on the input form as fully taxable. The following information describes how entries in the field affect the calculation of the federal and state tax returns.
F/S: Use this field only if you are preparing multiple-state tax returns. For multiple-state tax returns, make duplicate line entries of an interest item for each state as necessary, with a different postal code for each entry. In the F/S field, enter S for all but one of the duplicate line entries. The federal application disregards entries coded S. Enter F in the F/S field if the item is applicable only to the federal return.
Type Code: Enter a code to identify interest income that is an adjustment to an interest amount (such as nominee or accrued interest).
If an item of interest income requires an adjustment, enter the total amount received on one line, then enter the adjustment amount on a separate line in the same column with type code 3, 4, 5, or 6. Enter the adjustment as a positive amount.
Payer: Enter the payer's name. A custom fieldview is available.
Interest Amount: Enter taxable interest income amounts and adjustments to interest amounts from Forms 1099-INT and 1099-OID to complete Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227. Do not enter tax-exempt interest in this field.

Postal Code: Enter a state postal code unless you are not processing a state return.
When processing two or more state returns, make duplicate line entries for those interest items for which you must enter different information for each state. For example, a different InState Muni ($ or %) or InState Source ($ or %) may be required for each state. Enter a postal code to direct each line entry to a particular state return. When using duplicate line entries, remember to enter S in the F/S field for all but one of the duplicate entries. The federal application disregards the state-only entries.
Note: When processing a multiple-state tax return, the duplicate line entry is not always necessary. Enter a single line entry if only one state return requires information, such as InState Muni ($ or %).
State Use: The codes available in this field are specific to the state code entered in the Postal Code field. If a state postal code was not entered, or if state use codes are not applicable to the state postal code entered, the field is disabled. Enter a code, if applicable, for special processing on an ExacTax/1041 state return.

Form [36A] - 1041 Pass-Through General, Income, Deductions, Final Year
Overview
Use this form to enter the client's Form 1041, Schedule K-1 data. The information you enter transfers to the related forms and schedules.
Form arrangement
On the left side of each field in the Income and Deductions and Final Year Deductions sections on Form K1T, ExacTax includes the Form 1041, Schedule K-1 line reference number. The line reference number indicates where on this form you should enter each Schedule K-1 item.
General Information
Unit
ExacTax automatically enters the next available number. Override this number if necessary, but do not leave the field blank. ExacTax uses this information to gather and to coordinate information for the business unit activity. For example, this data enables ExacTax to link information (such as income or loss, sales, credits, and assets detail) for the passive calculations.
Name
ExacTax uses the entity name you enter in this field as the unit description for the state allocation spreadsheet and for the description in the folders block.
Corpus
If all or part of the income or loss from this activity is allocated to corpus rather than to income, enter the percentage that is allocable to corpus in XXX.XXXX format.
State
If you process a state return and the income for this activity is considered source income for that state, enter a postal code for proper state processing. If you leave this field blank, none of the income for this activity will be considered source income for that state.
Entity: Type
Enter the type of entity or use the fieldview to make the selection. This information does not appear on the federal 1041 return; the information is for state use only.
Include depletion expense with nonpassive income
Enter X if the depletion expense calculated in the ExacTax/Oil & Gas module for the activity should be treated as nonpassive on Schedule E, Page 2, Part III. If this field is blank, ExacTax treats the depletion expense as passive on Schedule E, Page 2, Part III.
Disposition of activity
Enter 1 to delete this activity on next year's proforma. This option also releases all suspended losses if this was a passive activity. Enter 2 if this is a passive activity selling on an installment basis. ExacTax treats the disposition as follows:
2016 Fiduciary Manual
133
If this is a passive activity with passive loss carryovers, ExacTax does not delete the activity for proforma purposes, and allows losses, based on the ratio of current-year gain recognized divided by unrecognized gain as of the beginning of the current year.
If this is a passive activity with no passive carryovers, ExacTax does not proforma this form or any other forms related to this activity.
Sale and/or InstPY to next year's Form InstPY.
Note: If this activity has assets, you must move or transfer them to another activity before proforma.
Income and Deductions
Use this section to enter information from the client's Schedule K-1, boxes 1 through 10.
Interest income
If no special types of interest income exist and source percentages are not needed for state processing, enter the amount in this field. ExacTax treats any amount entered in the input form as fully taxable. The following information describes how the entries in the field affect the calculation of the federal and state tax returns.
F/S: Use this field only if you are preparing multiple-state tax returns. For multiple-state tax returns, make duplicate line entries of an interest item for each state as necessary, with a different postal code for each entry. In the F/S field, enter S for all but one of the duplicate line entries. The federal product disregards entries coded S. Enter F in the F/S field if the item is only applicable to the federal return.
Type Code: Enter a code to identify interest income that is an adjustment to an interest amount (such as nominee or accrued interest).
If an item of interest income requires an adjustment, enter the total amount received on one line, then enter the adjustment amount on a separate line in the same column with type code 3, 4, 5, or 6. Enter the adjustment as a positive amount.
Payer: Enter the payer's name. A custom fieldview is available.
Interest Amount: Enter taxable interest income amounts and adjustments to interest amounts from Forms 1099-INT and 1099-OID to complete Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227. Do not enter tax-exempt interest in this field.
Tax Exempt: Enter total tax-exempt interest amounts, including interest income attributable to private activity bonds issued after 8/7/86. Do not enter tax-exempt interest in the Interest Amount field.
Private Act Bond: Enter interest income attributable to private activity bonds issued after 8/7/86. Amounts entered in this field are used only for Schedule I calculations. You must also enter the amount in the Tax Exempt field for Form 1041, 1041-QFT, 1040NR, or 5227 purposes.
Postal Code: Enter a state postal code unless you are not processing a state return.
When processing two or more state returns, make duplicate line entries for those interest items for which you must enter different information for each state. For example, a different InState Muni ($ or %) or InState Source ($ or %) may be required for each state. Enter a postal code to direct each line entry to a particular state return. When using duplicate line entries, remember to enter S in the F/S field for all but one of the duplicate entries. The federal product disregards the state-only entries.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
134
Note: When processing a multiple-state tax return, the duplicate line entry is not always necessary. Enter a single line entry if only one state return requires information, such as InState Muni ($ or %).
State Use: The codes available in this field are specific to the state code entered in the Postal Code field. If a state postal code was not entered, or if state use codes are not applicable to the state postal code entered, the field is disabled.

US Govt Oblig ($ or %): Make an entry if any portion of the interest income is attributable to U.S. government obligations.

Note that this field is applicable only for interest items entered in the Tax Exempt field. ExacTax disregards an InState Muni ($ or %) entry for items entered in the Interest Amount field.

Form [37A] - Farm General and Income
Overview
Use this form to enter the Schedule F general farm information and all farm income and deductions if the estate or trust operates a farm.
General Information
Use this section to complete the top part of Schedule F and to classify income and expenses.
Unit
ExacTax automatically enters the next available number. Override this number if necessary but do not leave the field blank. ExacTax uses this information to gather and to coordinate information for the unit activity. For example, the activity unit number enables ExacTax to link information (such as income or loss, sales, credits, and assets detail) for the passive calculations.
Description
ExacTax uses the description you enter in this field as the unit description for depreciation, the state allocation spreadsheet, and for the folders block.
Corpus
If all or part of the income or loss from this activity is allocated to corpus rather than to income, enter the percentage that is allocable to corpus in XXX.XXXX format.
State
If you process a state return and the income for this activity is considered source income for that state, enter a state postal code for proper state processing. If you leave this field blank, none of the income for this activity will be considered source income for that state.
Agricultural activity code
Enter the agricultural activity code or use the fieldview to make the selection.
Accounting method
Enter the code that represents the method of accounting or use the fieldview to make the selection. If this field is blank, ExacTax defaults to the cash method of accounting.
Material participation in the operation of this business this year
Enter 2 if the trust did not materially participate in this activity. The default is 1 for Yes.
Note: If you enter 2, ExacTax considers this activity passive and automatically defaults to a passive activity code of 1. The passive activity code is entered on Form F-2.
Payments were made that require Form(s) 1099 to be filed
Enter 1 if the trust made payments that require Forms 1099. Enter 2 if the trust did not make payments that require Forms 1099.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
144
If yes, all required Form(s) 1099 were or will be filed
Enter 1 if Forms 1099 will be filed. Enter 2 if the trust did not file Forms 1099.
City or state use code
Enter the three-character code for the activity. Only the New York, and Ohio applications use this code.
Notes
For New York returns, enter YON to identify the information as derived from sources within the City of Yonkers. For nonresident or part-year resident returns, ExacTax uses this information to complete Form Y-206, City of Yonkers Nonresident Fiduciary Earning Tax Return.
For New York returns, enter NYC or YON to identify the information as derived from city sources for Form IT-205-A, Schedule 4 for the calculation of full-year or part-year resident city taxes.
For Ohio returns, enter 10A to identify that the farm is over 10 acres in size.
Disposition of activity
Enter 1 to delete this activity on next year’s proforma. This option also releases all suspended losses if this was a passive activity. Enter 2 if this is a passive activity sold on an installment basis. ExacTax treats the disposition as follows: if this is a passive activity with passive loss carryovers, ExacTax does not delete the activity for proforma purposes, and allows losses based on the ratio of current-year gain recognized divided by unrecognized gain as of the beginning of the current year.
If this is a passive activity with no passive carryovers, ExacTax does not proforma this form or any other forms related to this activity but proformas the related Form Sale and/or InstPY to next year’s Form InstPY.
Note: If this activity has assets, you must move or transfer them to another activity before proforma.
Income
Use this section to enter information for the method of accounting.
Sale of livestock and other resale items

Form [37B] - Farm Expenses, Other, Passives
Overview
Use this form to enter expenses, at risk, and passive carryover information if the estate or trust operates a farm.
Expenses
Use this section to enter all farm expenses.
Identification information
ExacTax transfers information from Form F to complete this section. You can modify the information in this section only by making changes on Form F.
Conservation expenses
Any positive amount you enter is limited to 25 percent of the gross farm income. If you enter a negative number, ExacTax converts the number to a positive number and does not limit that amount.
Note: If electronically filing this return, IRS Publication 5078 does not accept conservation expenses entered in Schedule F. When conservation expenses are present, the return must be filed on paper.
Depreciation (Force)
If you retrieve depreciation expense using tax code 616 or manually enter it in this field, ExacTax uses this data rather than the amount it calculates on Form 4562.
Note: ExacTax does not separately allocate an amount in this field to beneficiaries. The entire amount is included with the net gain or loss calculated for this activity.
Other
Enter other expenses in this field.
Preproductive period
Enter the preproductive period expenses being capitalized. The amount prints as a negative number in the other expenses with the description 263A.
Other Information
Use this section to enter at risk, subsidy, and preference information.
Amount "at risk," if not 100%
Enter the amount of the investment at risk. If this field is blank, ExacTax assumes 100 percent of the investment is at risk. If applicable, ExacTax limits the amount of loss for the current unit to the amount you enter.
Note: Form 6198 is available in ExacTax/1041 as a non-calculating form.
Received a subsidy in current year
Mark this field to indicate Yes on the bottom on of Schedule F, Page 1. ExacTax defaults to No if this field is blank.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
148
Preference items
Use the field to enter the alternative minimum tax preference amounts. ExacTax uses this information to complete Schedule I.
Passive Activity Information
Enter the appropriate passive activity code. ExacTax treats entities coded 1 as passive and entities coded 3 as nonpassive. If you enter passive carryovers for entities coded 3, ExacTax considers those entities to be former passive activities. Income and losses are considered passive or active as follows:
If the current-year net income is less than the prior-year suspended losses, ExacTax reports both prior-year suspended losses and current-year net income on Form 8582.
If the current-year net income is equal to or greater than the prior-year suspended losses, neither amount is reported on Form 8582.
If there is a current-year net loss, only the prior-year suspended losses are reported on Form 8582.
Aggregation group
If this activity is part of an aggregated group, enter the aggregation group number. Units with the same aggregation number are reported as one item on the statement worksheets for Form 8582. All of the entities in an aggregation must have the same passive code.
Carryovers
If ExacTax/1041 was used in the prior year, this information proformas automatically. Otherwise, enter last year’s regular and AMT passive loss carryovers for this activity.
Notes
ExacTax treats blank AMT fields as having no AMT carryover. ExacTax does not use the regular carryovers as a default AMT amount. If there is no difference between the regular and AMT carryover, enter the same amount in both the Regular and AMT fields. ExacTax also uses this information to complete Schedule I and Form 8582, if applicable.
Enter long-term Schedule D amounts net of 28 percent. ExacTax adds the amounts in the 28% rate fields to the amounts in the respective long-term fields. This differs from data entry for gains and losses elsewhere in ExacTax

Form [41C] - Foreign Tax Credit Carryovers
Overview
Use this form to enter the history of foreign taxes paid and credit allowable to calculate the foreign tax credit carryover for the current year.
Notes
Foreign income on Form 1116 in the same category of income must exist in the current year for the carryover to be included on the return.
The foreign tax credit carryover expires in the final year of a return; the carryover is not available to pass through to the beneficiaries.
Foreign Taxes Paid / Accrued
If you used ExacTax/1041 in the prior year, this information proformas automatically. Otherwise, enter the amount of foreign taxes paid or accrued during the year. Amounts entered in these fields may be used in the supporting statement for Form 1116, line 10 and to print in the first column of the Foreign Tax Credit Carryover Worksheet for the applicable foreign income category.
Maximum Credit Allowable
If you used ExacTax/1041 in the prior year, this information proformas automatically. Otherwise, enter the maximum foreign tax credit allowable under the limit for the year. Amounts entered in these fields may be used in the supporting statement for Form 1116, line 10 and to print in the second column of the Foreign Tax Credit Carryover Worksheet for the applicable foreign income category.
Unused Tax (+) or Excess Limit (-)
If you used ExacTax/1041 in the prior year, this information proformas automatically. Otherwise, enter the unused foreign tax (+) or excess limit (-) for the year. The unused foreign tax in each foreign income category is the amount of foreign taxes paid or accrued less the limit for that category. The excess limit in each foreign income category is the amount by which the limit is greater than the qualified taxes paid or accrued for that category. Refer to the Form 1116 instructions and the IRS Publication 514 for additional details.
Positive (+) amounts entered in these fields may be used in the supporting statement for Form 1116, line 10. Amounts (+ or -) entered in these fields also print in the third column of the Foreign Tax Credit Carryover Worksheet for the applicable foreign income category.
Note: The amounts in the Unused Tax fields should be net of that year’s foreign taxes that were carried back or carried forward to another year. Therefore, the amounts in these fields are not always the difference between the amounts in the Foreign Taxes Paid / Accrued fields and the amounts in the Maximum Credit Allowable fields.
Do not apply unused foreign tax to 2012
If you have unused foreign tax (+) in the current year, ExacTax automatically applies this amount to the prior year up to the amount of the excess limit (-) in that year. The amount applied prints in the fourth column of the Foreign Tax Credit Carryover Worksheet. Enter X if you do not want to apply any unused foreign tax from the current year to the prior year.

Form [43A] - Sale of Business Property
Overview
Use this form to enter asset sale information for Form 4797 and current-year installment sales for Form 6252. Use Form OthAsset, to enter additional information needed to calculate Form 4797 and Form InstPY to enter prior-year installment sale information.
ExacTax uses the dates of acquisition and sale entered on this form to determine short-term versus long-term transactions, and the appropriate part of Form 4797, Form 6252, or Schedule D in which to report sales.
Form Sale is designed to enable you to enter asset sale information in one place and have ExacTax determine the proper category (or categories) in which to report each sale on the return. Because there is not a one-to-one correspondence between the position of an asset in the input form and in the form, ExacTax dynamically allocates assets to the appropriate form position.
Note: ExacTax provides a client-specific option to specify the method of entering asset information: you can enter it either in the asset module or in the various depreciation forms. If you choose the asset module as the data entry method, this form is not applicable and is not visible. To enter asset information using this form, choose File > Client Properties > Advanced Properties > Enter Asset Detail tab, and clear the Enter asset detail information checkbox to turn off the application default.
Asset information entered directly on Form 4797 or 6252 does not transfer back to Form Sale, and ExacTax does not print the form.

Section 1250 property
Enter X to indicate that the asset sold was section 1250 property. ExacTax calculates unrecaptured section 1250 gain, if applicable, and uses it in the tax calculation using maximum capital gains rates.
Unrecaptured section 1250 gains from Forms 4797 and 6252 transfer to the Schedule D Unrecaptured Section 1250 Gain Worksheet. This worksheet calculates the total unrecaptured section 1250 gains for Schedule D, Page 2.
Casualty or theft gain postponed
For a casualty gain reported on Form 4797, Part III, if some of the gain is postponed due to the purchase of replacement property, enter the amount of postponed gain. ExacTax adjusts Form 4797, line 24 by this amount.
Sale to related party
If there is a disallowed loss on the sale, enter X. If this field is marked, ExacTax enters an item to reverse the loss on Form 4797, line 2 or 10.

Form [43D] - Prior Year Installment Sale
Overview
Use this form to enter asset sale information for Form 6252 for prior-year installment sales. Enter current-year installment sales on Form Sale. If you enter current-year installment sales on this form, ExacTax does not report them correctly on Form 6252.
ExacTax uses the dates of acquisition and sale entered on Form InstPY to determine short-term versus long-term transactions; the appropriate parts of Form 4797, Form 6252, or Schedule D on which to report sales; and whether the transaction is a prior-year installment sale.
This form is designed to enable you to enter asset sale information in one place and have ExacTax determine the proper category (or categories) in which to report each sale on the return. Because there is not a one-to-one correspondence between the position of an asset in the input form and in the form, ExacTax dynamically allocates assets to the appropriate form position.
If you enter asset information directly on Form 4797 or 6252 and not on Form InstPY, ExacTax does not print the form. Asset information that you enter directly on the form does not transfer to Form InstPY. Do not enter asset information directly on
the form. Enter sale information on this form.
General Information
The information in this section applies to all of the forms used to report sales of assets.
Unit / Form
These fields contain information about the business unit activity. ExacTax uses this information to gather and coordinate information for this business activity. For example, this data enables ExacTax to link information (such as income or loss, sales, credits, and asset detail) for the activity. The following table lists the available forms and their applicable folder location.

ExacTax uses the description entered as the unit description in the drop-down list in the input form's tab.
State
If you process a state return and the income for this activity is considered source income for that state, enter a state postal code for proper state processing. If you leave this field blank, none of the income for this activity will be considered source income for that state.
Section 1250 property
2016 Fiduciary Manual
166
Enter X to indicate that the asset sold was section 1250 property. If marked, ExacTax calculates unrecaptured section 1250 gain, if applicable, and uses it in the tax calculation using maximum capital gains rates.
Unrecaptured section 1250 gains from Forms 4797 and 6252 transfer to the Schedule D Unrecaptured Section 1250 Gain Worksheet, which calculates the total of such gains to report on Schedule D, Page 2.
Does not qualify for installment treatment
For Pennsylvania returns, enter X for a unit that does not qualify for installment treatment.
Gross Profit and Contract Price
Use this section of the input form to enter gross profit and contract price information. ExacTax uses the information in this section to allocate any alternative minimum tax gain / loss adjustment and to properly complete Form 6252, Part 1, Gross Profit and Contract Price.
Date acquired / Date sold
Enter acquired and sold dates in the MMDDYY format. Enter I or 999998 in the Date acquired field to designate an asset as inherited; ExacTax treats this as a long-term holding period if you leave the Force field blank. Enter V or 999999 in the Date acquired field if the asset was acquired on various dates; ExacTax treats this as a short-term holding period if you leave the Force field blank.
Note: If electronically filing this return, IRS Publication 1438 does not accept Various or Inherit as entered in the Date acquired or Date sold field. A valid date must be entered or the return will be rejected.
Gross sales price or insurance proceeds received
Enter the total of any money, face amount of installment obligation, and the FMV of other property received. Also include any existing mortgage or other debt the buyer assumed or took the property subject to. The amount entered must include the amount of any indebtedness assumed to properly report the installment sale.
Alternative minimum tax gain or (loss) adjustment
Enter the difference between the gain or loss reported for the regular tax and the gain or loss calculated for the AMT. ExacTax uses this amount to calculate the adjusted gain or loss reported on Schedule I, line 13. ExacTax calculates the current-year gain or loss adjustment as the percentage of current-year gain divided by total gain to be reported over the life of the installment sale.
Installment Sale Income
Use this section to enter information for Form 6252, Part II. Enter only prior-year installment sales in this input form. Enter current-year installment sales on Form Sale.
If a prior-year sale is a section 1231 sale, ExacTax uses the dates of acquisition and sale to determine if the Form 6252 gain transfers to Form 4797, Part I or Part II. Long-term sales transfer to Part I and short-term sales transfer to Part II. If other Form 4797 information is present, the gain transfers to the appropriate line. If other Form 4797 information is not present, the gain transfers directly to Schedule D (either short term or long term).
Total current year payments received
ExacTax prints Form 6252 if you enter an amount in this field or if the payment is a related party transaction and Part III is required. To print Form 6252 when there are no payments in the current year, enter 0 (zero) in this field.
2016 Fiduciary Manual

Prior year payments received
ExacTax uses the information you enter in the field to produce an installment sale history automatically when printing. ExacTax requires complete sale information to produce an accurate report. Prior-year sales may not have complete sale information on the input form. To have a complete history of the installment sale, enter the information in the field.
If you do not want to use the installment sale dialog, enter prior-year payments directly into the input form field. ExacTax properly reports the amount on the Form 6252.
The fields within the field are described as follows. The statement reports current-year information first, so enter information in descending order.
Year: Enter the year the payment was received. ExacTax reports current-year information on the first line of the statement. Enter payments in descending order.
Contract Balance End of Year: Enter the end-of-year contract balance for the applicable year. The statement reports the current-year contract balance as net of the current-year principal payment.
Principal Payments: Enter the principal payment received. This amount should equal Form 6252, line 21, Payments received during year, for the applicable year. ExacTax displays this column's total on the input form and prints it on Form 6252.
Reported Income: Enter the installment sale income reported on Form 6252, line 24 for the appropriate year.
Total Income: Enter the amount of gross profit for the installment sale. Enter the gross profit reported on this sale's initial Form 6252, line 16. This amount remains constant for all years entered in the field.
Unreported Income: Enter the amount of gross profit that has not yet been reported as income.
Balance of unrecaptured section 1250 gain to be taxed / Balance of alternative minimum tax unrecaptured section 1250 gain to be taxed
Enter the amount of unrecaptured section 1250 gain to be taxed at the 25-percent rate. Per Regulations section 1.453-12, ExacTax applies the recognized gain first to unrecaptured section 1250 gain.
Total ordinary income to recapture / Ordinary income previously recaptured
Enter the amount of ordinary income to recapture for sections 1252, 1254, or 1255 property only. Do not enter ordinary income from a section 1245 or 1250 asset in these fields.
Beginning of year, remaining gross profit
Enter the remaining gross profit amount from the beginning of the year. ExacTax uses this amount in AMT and passive calculations, if applicable, and to produce the installment sale history statement.

2016 Fiduciary Manual
171
Casualty or theft number

Date of casualty or theft
Enter the date of the casualty or theft. This date does not transfer to the return; however, ExacTax uses the date to determine the holding period of the gains or losses.
Delete on next year’s proforma
Enter X to prevent this casualty from being proforma’d to next year. If you leave this field blank and enter X in the Postpone entire gain field, ExacTax proformas the information on the form to next year.

Property descriptions: A / B / C / D
Enter a description for each property. ExacTax transfers this information to Form 4684, line 19.
Asset number

Property type
Enter 1 to indicate trade or business property or enter 2 to indicate income-producing property. This entry determines in which column losses for the casualties or thefts are reported in Section B, Part II.

Holding period (Force)
ExacTax determines a short-term or long-term holding period based on the dates you entered in the Date acquired and Date of casualty or theft fields. Enter I or 999998 in the Date acquired field to designate an asset as inherited; ExacTax treats this as a long-term holding period. Enter V or 999999 in the Date acquired field if the asset was acquired on various dates; ExacTax treats this as a short-term holding period. To change the holding period, enter 1 for short term or 2 for long term in this field.
Postpone entire gain
Enter X if the taxpayer expects to acquire replacement property of sufficient basis to postpone the entire gain, but has not done so in the current year. If all of the replacement property is acquired in the current year, enter the replacement information in the Replacement Information section of this form and leave this field blank.
Gain reported on Form 4797, Part III
If there is a long-term gain from the casualty or theft of depreciable property, enter the information on Form Sale and on this form, and enter X in this field and in the Disposition due to casualty or theft field on Form Sale. If you enter X in this field, ExacTax completes Form 4684, Section B, Part I, but does not transfer any gain from this property to Part II.

In addition, the first‐year passenger automobile limits have increased by $8,000 for 2014 through 2017, $6,400 for 2018 and $4,800 for 2019.
Section 179 — The maximum amount of section 179 allowed has increased from $25,000 to $500,000, for 2015 and later tax years. Of the $500,000, up to $250,000 for the 2015 tax year can be expensed for qualified real property. In addition, the $200,000 investment limitation has been increased to $2,000,000.
Qualified real property for section 179 —Qualified real property (qualified leasehold improvement property, qualified restaurant property, and qualified retail improvement property) placed in service in a 2015 tax year is eligible for section 179 expensing. The maximum amount of section 179 expense allowed for qualified real property is $250,000.
Leasehold Improvements, Retail Improvements and Restaurant Building Improvements — The Method/Life Wizard has been updated for Leasehold Improvements, Retail Improvements and Restaurant Building Improvements to permanently use the 15‐year recovery period.
Indian Reservation Property — The Indian Reservation and Indian Reservation Farm Method have been updated to allow the accelerated depreciation for business property through 2016.
Depreciation
General The Input Form 4562 [50] contains input for up to six assets and up to five different computations per asset on a page. The various computations used for Tax, AMT, State, State AMT, etc., will be referred to as ‘treatments’. Each treatment may have a different set of values for cost, method, life, etc., where allowed. ExacTax will automatically use the appropriate default values that are derived from the Tax (federal) treatment for the other treatments. In general you only need to enter the information for the Tax treatment and any prior year data, such as prior depreciation or Section 179 that is different for the other treatments.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
182
For new clients the following chart shows the default treatments that are created:
Entity Type Default Treatments 1065 Tax, Book, State, AMT, State AMT (for certain states) * 1120 C Tax, Book, State, AMT, ACE, State AMT (for certain states)* 1120S Tax, Book, State, AMT, State AMT (for certain states) * 1041 Tax, State, AMT, State AMT (for certain states) *
Entity Type Default Treatments 1040 Tax, State, AMT, State AMT (for certain states) * 990 E Tax, State, AMT , State AMT (for certain states) * 990 PF Tax, State, AMT , State AMT (for certain states) *
* When a state return is present for CA, WI or IA.
The depreciation treatment is not applicable for some state returns.
For some states, the depreciation treatment is not needed and will not be used by the ExacTax state return. The treatment will not compute when that ExacTax state return is added to the client.
Depreciation may not be applicable because:
the state return is not an income tax return.
state depreciation is not calculated different from federal depreciation.
the state adjustment for the federal bonus depreciation is an addback of the amount taken on a federal form (rather than the difference between depreciation calculated with the bonus and depreciation calculated without the bonus). These states include:
Entities State1040 & 1065 CT, IL, MN, NC, NE, and OH1120C IL, MN, NC, NE, OH, OK, and PA1120S CT, IL, MN, NC, NE, OH, and OK1041 AZ, IL, MN, NC, NE, OH, and OK
Related Schedules/Forms Enter the unit number of the Input Form to which this Input Form [50] relates (A, C, E, F, etc.). For example, to attach the depreciation to Form C [28], unit 2, enter 2 in the box for C#. To attach the depreciation to the first Form 2106 [72], enter 1 in the box for 2106#.
All depreciation on this particular Input Form [50] will carry to the indicated form.
Note If all attachment boxes are blank, or the Schedule or Form unit indicated does not exist, depreciation will be carried to Schedule A.
Tax Assumptions The following items represent tax assumptions built into ExacTax. If you want to create a different result than the program because you disagree with any of the assumptions, you may always force the desired depreciation for any asset.
Description This field is limited to 20 characters.
Date in Service ExacTax assumes that any date after 12/31/29 is in the 1900s and any date before 01/01/30 is in the 2000s. Enter the full date (mmddyy) the property was first placed into service. An entry here is mandatory for all assets. This includes assets that are not being depreciated such as vehicles using the mileage method and a Home Office in a rental. Do not enter “V” for “VARIOUS” as the date. Entries with an invalid date will be defaulted to 01/01/Tax Year} for assets with no prior depreciation/amortization and 01/01/{Prior Year} for assets with prior depreciation/amortization.
Cost or Basis
2016 Fiduciary Manual
183
Enter the cost or other basis of the asset. Do not adjust the cost by any Section 179 expense, Section 168(k) (Bonus depreciation), ITC, Salvage value, or prior years’ depreciation that may have been taken. The system will automatically make the appropriate basis adjustment from other input. Use the state treatment column only for assets with a different initial state basis. A negative entry is allowed a will compute a negative amount for depreciation.
Method of Depreciation Enter the method of depreciation from the following list. This is a mandatory entry even when the item is fully depreciated, fully expensed, etc. However, you may enter only the description and date in service if you are entering listed property on Form [51] or Home Office on Form [52]. The state method should be entered only when it is different from the federal method. The AMT treatment will automatically use the applicable method and life based on the method, life and date in service.

Mid-Quarter Convention ExacTax applies the mid-quarter test to all of the client’s “appropriate” assets to determine whether the mid-quarter convention applies. If it does apply, ExacTax recalculates MACRS depreciation for the applicable current-year assets. An appropriate asset is defined as an asset in the Tax column that is:
A current-year MACRS asset (except 27.5, 31.5, and 39-year real property)
Not marked in the Mid-Quarter & Section 179 Force Options on Form [53] to exclude from mid-quarter determination
Not disposed of in the current year
2016 Fiduciary Manual
184
Not a luxury auto expensed using standard mileage
A current-year real property MACRS asset, which is marked in the Mid-Quarter & Section 179 Force Options on Form [53] to include in the mid-quarter determination
Note: To force MACRS property (5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 yr) to be treated as real property, on Form 53 you need to mark the Exclude from mid-quarter determination (force) checkbox in the Mid-Quarter & Section 179 Force Options and Not eligible section 179 property.
ExacTax uses the entire basis of the new component asset acquired through a trade or a replacement of a casualty / theft in the mid-quarter convention calculation.
For luxury autos or listed property, the mid-quarter determination uses the business percentage of the cost shown in the Tax column.
Assets that have been expensed under section 179 are not included in the mid-quarter determination. However, if an asset was partially expensed, then the amount subject to depreciation is included in the calculation.
ExacTax uses the basis of the asset without reduction for the section 168(k) bonus depreciation when calculating the mid-quarter convention test.
Depreciation Convention ExacTax will automatically compute the applicable convention for MACRS personal property; mid-month, mid-quarter or half-year for current year assets. If the mid-quarter convention was used on a prior year asset, check the Prior Mid-qtr box just below the Asset # field. To override the convention computation for an individual current year asset, use Form Asset-Other [53].
Enter the same activity and unit number at the top and enter the asset number in the applicable field.
In the Mid-Quarter and Section 179 Force Options section check the box Asset calculated using mid-qtr
This Force affects only this asset. You may also check the box to Include in mid-quarter calc, which will incorporate the cost into the ExacTax computation of applicable convention that is applied throughout the return. Collate this Form immediately behind the Form 50, 51, 52 or 2106 containing the asset that is being forced.
Section 179 Enter the amount to be expensed under Section 179. ExacTax will automatically adjust the cost (or other basis) to determine the depreciable basis. For assets placed in service during the current year, ExacTax
will apply all applicable limitations to determine the allowable Section 179 expense deduction. Even when an asset is to be fully expensed, the date placed into service, method of depreciation, and life must still be entered.
Section 179 Total Property The total cost of section 179 property placed in service during the current year is the sum of the cost basis (adjusted for the business use percentage) of all personal property assets in all activities, except the Misc activity, placed in service in the current year with a depreciation method other than memo, land, or amortization not coded as computer software.
Section 168(k) (Bonus Depreciation Post 09-10-01) Bonus depreciation deduction was added by the Job Creation and Worker Assistance Act of 2002, (March 9, 2002), and will remain in effect for most property purchased and placed in service through 12/31/2004. The Act generally requires an additional first year depreciation deduction for qualified property placed in service after September 10, 2001. For qualified property placed in service after May 5, 2003, the bonus rate was increased to 50%. The term “qualified property” is defined in Section 168(k)(2). The additional first year depreciation deduction is allowed for both regular tax and alternative minimum tax purposes for the taxable year in which the qualified property is placed in service. Currently, many states do not follow the federal law on this deduction and ExacTax will compute a state if different adjustment when required.
The new law requires that bonus depreciation be taken on all qualifying property, unless an election out is made on a class-by-class basis: 3, 5, 7, 10, 15, 20-year property and computer software. See Input Form Asset-Bonus Depreciation Elections [54] for information on making current year elections and indicating any prior year elections that were made.
The amount of Bonus depreciation claimed in not shown in the treatment as a separate item. Prior Bonus is included in the Prior Depreciation field and current Bonus is included in the Current Depreciation field.
The initial system assumption is that most property qualifies, other than real property, unless otherwise indicated. Used property that is purchased does not qualify. Identify used property by checking the ‘Used’
2016 Fiduciary Manual
185
box located above the Date in Service field. To stop Bonus from being claimed on property without checking ‘Used’, enter a code ‘P’ in the Sec 168(k) type (Bonus)field.
Certain Leasehold Improvement property may also qualify for bonus depreciation. The system default is that real property (with lives of 27.5, 39 or 40) does not qualify for additional bonus depreciation. To indicate qualified leasehold improvement property, enter a code ‘L’ in the Sec 168(k) type (Bonus) field located at the bottom of the treatment columns. This must be entered for each qualified leasehold improvement. See the chart that follows for all Sec 168(k) type (Bonus) codes:
Qualified Property Property will be considered qualified for the automatic calculation of additional bonus when:
Date in service = Current year AND
Business Use Percentage is greater than 50% AND
The current year depreciation is not overridden AND
Used property is not indicated AND
The asset has not been disposed AND
A MACRS Method is used AND Class Life = 3, 5, 7, 10, 15 or 20 OR
A MACRS Method is used AND
Leasehold Improvement is indicated with an ‘L’ in the Sec 168(k) type (Bonus) code AND
No election out has been made for that asset’s class.
Note: Where the current year depreciation is manually entered, it must also include the bonus depreciation.

Amortization Section For property being amortized, (method AM). Enter the IRC section which entitles the deduction (i.e. ‘461’ for mortgage points) in the Amortization Section field from the following list. This entry does not affect the amortization computation but could affect where the deduction is claimed. If amortization is used on an asset linked to Schedule A, such as points on a refinance, you must enter code 461. For amortization to Schedule A, when this is left blank, or any other code section is used, the deduction will be taken to the Miscellaneous, Subject to 2% of AGI section instead of to the Mortgage Interest section.

Prior Depreciation Enter the depreciation allowed or allowable in prior years.
Caution
Do not include any Section 179 expense in this amount. Bonus depreciation should be included.
Regardless of whether the correct depreciation was taken in prior years, ExacTax still calculates the correct current depreciation according to the method you specify. If incorrect depreciation was taken in a prior year, ExacTax does not adjust the current depreciation so that the ending accumulated depreciation is correct. Also, if YTD depreciation is incorrect for monthly or quarterly periods, ExacTax calculates an adjusted current-period depreciation so that YTD plus current depreciation yields the correct ending amount through the end of the current period. The current-period depreciation could be a negative amount in that case.
Current Year Depreciation If this field is blank, the system will automatically compute the current year depreciation amount, based on the applicable convention for the year. An entry in this field will override the automatic system computation.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
187
Alternative Minimum Tax Life Post 1998 (MACRS) For computing alternative minimum tax depreciation for property placed in service after 1998 that uses the 200% declining balance method (method M) ExacTax uses the 150 % declining balance method and the same recovery period used for regular tax. No preference adjustment is computed for any asset using straight-line (MACRS SL), MACRS 150, ADS class life or has claimed the Bonus depreciation.
Post 1986 – Pre 1999 (MACRS) Enter the life for computing alternative minimum tax depreciation if you wish to override the system defaults.
AMT Calculation The following table shows when ExacTax performs the automatic AMT calculations:
Method Used Real Property Personal: New or Used MACRS: accelerated for personal, S-L for real property
Automatic AMT calc Automatic AMT calc
MACRS: straight-line Automatic AMT calc
Alternative Depreciation System: MACRS (150% D.B.)

accelerated life
Straight-line 125% declining balance Automatic AMT calc 150% declining balance Automatic AMT calc 200% declining balance Automatic AMT calc Sum-of-the-year’s digits Automatic AMT calc Straight-line amortization Memo asset (no depreciation)
* = Automatic AMT calc. ** = Automatic AMT calc. when ADS life is not equal to 40 years
*** = Automatic AMT calc. when using accelerated life
For personal property not qualified for section 168(k) acquired after 12/31/98, AMT and the 150% election under MACRS are calculated over regular MACRS lives instead of Alternative Depreciation System lives.
For qualified 168(k) assets, the AMT treatment is calculated the same as the Tax treatment.
Rounding If an asset’s remaining amount to be depreciated is $1.01 or less, ExacTax automatically adds it to the current depreciation amount and sets the remaining amount to zero to prevent later rounding problems.
Limit ACRS/MACRS to Life By default ExacTax does not depreciate ACRS/MACRS assets beyond their asset lives. However, two situations exist where ExacTax does not limit ACRS/MACRS assets: (1) when a client has a short year, and (2) when an asset is a luxury auto.
Luxury Autos (Passenger) In the case of section 179 property coded as listed property or a luxury auto, ExacTax uses the IRS tables instead of the formulas in the IRC to calculate the current depreciation. During the recovery period, the remaining basis of these assets reflects the cost of the asset adjusted by the percentage of business use, less actual depreciation taken. If you enter a section 179 expense that exceeds the limit in the first year, ExacTax adjusts the section 179 amount.
If using MACRS tables, the sixth year limits depreciation to the lesser of 5.76% or the appropriate sixth year limited amount.

Current Alternative Minimum Tax Depreciation–Federal
Enter the current year AMT depreciation if you wish to override the automatic system computation. This amount will be reflected on the supporting statement for AMT depreciation.
If related to a non-passive activity, total depreciation adjustments and preferences will carry to line applicable lines of Form 6251. For passive activities, the depreciation adjustment and preference is incorporated in the passive activity loss computation and the net adjustment is carried to the passive activity line on Form 6251.
Prior Alternative Minimum Tax Depreciation–State if Different
Enter total state prior year AMT depreciation.
Current Alternative Minimum Tax Depreciation–State if Different
Enter the current year AMT depreciation amount if you wish to override the automatic system computation. This amount will be reflected on the supporting statement for AMT depreciation.
California If related to a non-passive activity, total depreciation adjustments and preferences will carry to Schedule P. For passive activities, the depreciation adjustment and preference is incorporated in the total passive activity adjustment for Schedule P.
Dispositions For current year automatic dispositions related to entries on Input Forms 50, 51, 52 and 2106, see Form Asset-Disposal [55A]. You may also use Form Sale to report a disposition, but all amounts must be manually entered there and certain limitations apply. For more information, see Form Sale.
Luxury Auto (Passenger), Listed Property Disposal When a luxury auto or listed property is sold or is a casualty/theft loss that is not replaced, the Cost/basis field on the Form Asset-Disposal [55A] reflects the cost of the asset adjusted for the business use. The depreciation allowed or allowable is the actual prior depreciation.
When a luxury auto or listed property is traded or is a casualty/theft loss that is replaced, the Adjusted basis original asset field on the Form Asset-Disposal [55] reflects the cost of the asset adjusted by the percentage of business use, less actual depreciation taken.
Delete from Proforma To delete this asset from next year’s proforma and from the Next Year’s Depreciation schedule see Form Asset-Disposal [55A]. The asset remains until the disposal method on Form 55’s is changed to Sold / Scrapped [55A], Like-Kind Exchange [55B], or Casualty / Theft [55C].

Form Asset [51] - Listed Property / Other
Overview Input Form Asset-Listed Prop/Other [51] is used to enter information for the calculation of depreciation and amortization, and the preparation of Form 4562 for assets that meet all of the following conditions:
listed property or non-listed property with less than 100% business use
not related to a home office
See Form Asset [50] for all regular depreciable property.
Additional pages are available as necessary. Up to six vehicles may be attached to the same activity (i.e. you may have six vehicles to Schedule C #1 and six to Schedule C #2).
Multi-state overflow input is available for this form.
Overflow is not available for expense detail (Additional Vehicle Information section). Limit your entries to the fields provided.
General Depreciation Complete the related form/schedule and asset detail entries for all treatments the same as for Input Form Asset [50]. Make additional entries in the Vehicle/Listed Property (and Other Business %) section based on the asset type:
Listed vehicle
Other listed property
Non-listed property with a business use percentage
Note: If no entry is made in the Vehicle/Listed Property (and Other Business %) section the asset will be treated as non-listed property at 100% business use.
For vehicles only, complete the sections for Vehicle Use, Additional Vehicle Information, Form 4562 Vehicle Questions [This Vehicle] and Form 4562 Vehicle Questions [All Vehicles].
Listed Vehicles In the Type of Property section check the box to indicate the asset type:

Form [55A] — Forms 4797 and 6252
Overview
Use Form Sale to enter asset sale information for Form 4797 (Regular and AMT) and current-year installment sales for Form 6252 (Regular and AMT). Use Form Misc to enter additional information needed to calculate Form 4797 and Form InstPY to enter prior year installment sale
information. Use Form K1Sale to enter sales of Section 179 property separately stated on Schedule K1.
Notes
Electronic filing: If you are filing this return electronically, there are data-entry guidelines you need to follow to prevent the return from being rejected.
ExacTax uses the dates of acquisition and sale entered in this form to determine short- versus long-term transactions and the appropriate part of Form
4797, Form 6252, or Schedule D in which to report sales.
Form Sale is designed to enable you to enter asset sale information in one place and have ExacTax determine the proper category (or categories) in which to report each sale on the return. Because the information entered in Form Sale may be reported on either Form 4797 or Form 6252 there is not a one-to-one relationship between the sale form and either form. Therefore, clicking to Forms view from Form Sale may not always return you to the
correct form.
Overrides
To force ExacTax to print Forms 4797 and 6252 (for current-year sales), enter the asset information in Form Sale. Then override the asset information on the form if needed.
Important!
If you enter asset information directly in Form 4797 or Form 6252 and not in Form Sale, ExacTax does not print the form.
Asset information that you enter directly in the form does not transfer back to Form Sale. Do not enter asset information directly in the form. Enter sale information in this form instead.
The information in this section applies to all of the forms used to report the sale of assets.
Unit / Form
These fields contain information about the business unit activity. ExacTax uses this information to gather and coordinate information for the business
unit activity. For example, these fields enable ExacTax to link information (such as income, loss, sales, credits, and asset detail) for the activity.
Description
This description, which transfers automatically from the Form 51, is used as the unit description. This field is mandatory.
Treatment
The information in this field controls where the information appears on Form 4797 or Schedule D. The table that follows lists the treatment codes and shows where ExacTax places the information. You can either enter these codes directly. Note that the asset module automatically enters code 1, 2, or
3 based on the nature of the asset. You can override the code that ExacTax enters, if desired.

Note: If you enter Various in either date field, ExacTax defaults to short-term.

Form [74] - Schedule B and Accounting Income
Overview
Use this form to enter information for Form 1041, Schedule B income distribution deduction and to enter adjustments for accounting income.
Income Distribution Deduction
ExacTax determines distributions for Form 1041, Page 2, Schedule B, line 9 using the information you enter on Form Allocate, in View > Beneficiary Information, and the amount calculated for accounting income. You do not have to complete any of the Schedule B input form fields on this form in order for ExacTax to complete Schedules B and K-1. Use these fields only to override the calculated amounts.
Adjusted tax-exempt interest (Force)
On the Allocation of Expenses by Income Type - Tax Basis Worksheet, ExacTax automatically calculates the adjusted tax-exempt interest for Form 1041, Schedule B, line 2. Use this field to override the calculated amount.
Includible in distributable net income per trust document: 100% of capital gains
Enter X to indicate that all capital gains, whether or not distributed, are attributable to income under the governing instrument or local law. If this field is blank, ExacTax limits the amount of capital gains on Form 1041, Page 2, Schedule B, line 3 to amounts distributed.
Includible in distributable net income per trust document: Short-term capital gain / Section 1231 gain / Other long-term capital gain (Force)
Enter amounts in these fields if only a portion of capital gains is attributable to income and this amount differs from the amount of capital gain distributed. Enter 0 (zero) if short-term, section 1231, or long-term capital gain is distributed but not includible in DNI.
Notes
If the amount of capital gains distributed to beneficiaries is equal to the amount of capital gains attributable to income, you do not need to enter amounts in these fields. Enter the distribution in the Capital gains / losses: Short-term and Long-term fields and the Section 1231 gain field in View > Beneficiary Information or mark the Allocate capital gains equally among all first tier beneficiaries checkbox on Form Allocate.
If you mark the 100% of capital gains includible in DNI per trust document field, ExacTax assumes that 100 percent of capital gains are attributable to income, regardless of any entry in these fields.
Income required to be distributed (Force)
ExacTax calculates the income required to be distributed based on information entered on Form Allocate and in View > Beneficiary Information. Use this field to override the calculated amount. ExacTax uses the amount you enter in this field as the amount of total distributions to first tier beneficiaries.
On non-final returns of estates and complex trusts, ExacTax allocates 100 percent of this amount to the Schedules K-1 of first-tier beneficiaries if this amount is less than distributable net income. To ensure correct Schedule K-1 allocations on these returns, the use of this field requires ordinary income allocations in View > Beneficiary Information totaling 100 percent.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
231
On all final returns, ExacTax uses the amount as total distributions only. Income allocations to beneficiaries on Schedules K-1 are performed using distributable net income.
Other amounts paid, credited, or distributed (required or discretionary)
ExacTax can determine this amount using accounting income and information you enter for beneficiaries in View > Beneficiary Information. You do not have to complete this field for an amount to appear on Form 1041, Page 2, Schedule B, line 10. Note that an entry in this field is added to any allocation to second-tier beneficiaries.
Tax-exempt income included in total distributions (Force)
ExacTax automatically calculates the amount of tax-exempt income included on Form 1041, Page 2, Schedule B, line 12. Use this field to override the calculated amount.
Cemetery perpetual care fund
Enter the number of gravesites if the trust is a cemetery perpetual care fund.
Enter an amount in the Deduction if less than $5 per gravesite field only if the amount paid is less than $5 per gravesite. If the Deduction if less than $5 per gravesite field is blank, ExacTax multiplies the amount in the Number of gravesites field by $5 to calculate Form 1041, Page 1, line 18.
Accounting Income
ExacTax calculates accounting income based on information entered on other forms. Use these fields to adjust the calculated amount.
Net accounting income (Force)
ExacTax automatically calculates accounting income on the Accounting Income and Distributable Net Income Detail Information Worksheet. Use this field to override the amount ExacTax calculates. If this is a simple trust or an estate, the forced amount does not transfer to Form 1041, Page 2, Schedule B, line 8.
Include income reported instead of distributions in accounting income
Enter X to include the income or losses reported on the Schedule K-1 from the pass-through entity in accounting income. If this field is blank, ExacTax includes only distributions from partnerships and S Corporations in accounting income; actual income or losses and deduction amounts reported on the Schedule K-1 from the pass-through entity are considered corpus. This field will proforma from year to year.
Additions - items in accounting income not on return
Enter items that are not reported on the return but should be included in accounting income. ExacTax prints this adjustment on the Accounting Income and Distributable Net Income Detail Information Worksheet.
Subtractions - items on return not in accounting income
Enter items that are reported on the return but should not be included in accounting income. ExacTax prints this adjustment on the Accounting Income and Distributable Net Income Detail Information Worksheet.
Allocate ordinary gain or (loss) from Form 4797 to income
2016 Fiduciary Manual
232
Enter X to allocate ordinary gain or (loss) from Form 4797 to income, rather than to corpus. If you mark this field, ExacTax treats 100 percent of the ordinary gain or (loss) as income on the Accounting Income and Distributable Net Income - Detail Information Worksheet.
Depletion percentage for accounting income purposes (Force)
Enter the depletion percentage used for accounting income purposes. If this field is blank, ExacTax calculates depletion for accounting income purposes using the same percentage as for tax purposes.
Note: This field is applicable only if you are using the ExacTax/Oil & Gas module.

Trust’s accounting income for current year (Force)
ExacTax calculates accounting income based on income and deduction information entered for the return. Use this field to override the amount calculated by ExacTax.
Total accrued distribution deficiencies from previous years
Enter the distribution deficiencies from previous years for a unitrust whose governing instrument provides for current distributions to make up prior-year deficiencies. If the trust has this provision but there are no prior-year deficiencies, enter 0 (zero). If this field is blank, ExacTax marks the No checkbox on Form 5227, Part V-B, line 63 and does not complete Form 5227, lines 67a and 67b. If there is an amount in this field, ExacTax marks the Yes checkbox on Form 5227, Part V-B, line 63 and does not complete Form 5227, line 66b.
Unitrust distribution (Force)
ExacTax automatically calculates the unitrust amount in one of the following three ways.
If you mark the Required distribution determined with reference to accounting income field, ExacTax calculates the unitrust amount as the lesser of trust accounting income or the unitrust amount and, in this case, completes Form 5227, lines 66a and 66b.
If you enter an amount in the Total accrued distribution deficiencies from previous years field, ExacTax calculates the unitrust amount to include the deficiency amount and, in this case, completes Form 5227, lines 66a, 67a, and 67b.
If both of these fields are blank, ExacTax calculates the unitrust amount on line 65b as the product of the unitrust fixed percentage times the FMV of net assets as calculated in Form 5227, Part IV. For the initial year of the trust, ExacTax prorates the unitrust amount based on the date in the Date created / decedent’s date of death field on Form 1041. For the final year of the trust, ExacTax prorates the unitrust amount based on the date in the Date of termination field on Form 1041. The result prints on Form 5227, line 68.
If there is more than one unitrust beneficiary, ExacTax allocates the unitrust amount among the beneficiaries using percentages entered in View > Beneficiary Information > Federal > Other Returns. If there are no percentages, ExacTax allocates the unitrust amount evenly among the beneficiaries. Use this field to force the amount for Form 5227, line 68.
Explanation if trustee changed the method of determining fair market value of assets
If there is data in this field, ExacTax marks the Yes checkbox on Form 5227, Part V-B, line 71.

Overview
Use this form to enter information to complete Form 1116, Foreign Tax Credit and the Foreign Tax Credit Worksheets.

Form 1116 - General Information
Use this section to enter general information to complete Form 1116.
Category of income
Enter the code that represents the applicable category of income or use the fieldview to make the selection. ExacTax enters Code A, Passive income, if you enter information on Form Income. Code B, General limitation income, is the default if the field is blank.
Part I - Income / Loss
Use this section to enter foreign income and expense information for calculating the Form 1116, Page 1 Detail Worksheet. The fiduciary portion of the amounts on this worksheet are consolidated into one Form 1116 for each income category.
Name of country
Enter the name of the foreign country for Form 1116, Part I. This field is mandatory to complete Form 1116. If you entered information on Form Income, this field displays "Various".
Foreign source: Gross income
Enter the gross foreign income that corresponds to the country entered in the Name of country field. If you entered information on Form Income, the amount is displayed in this field. ExacTax automatically calculates an AMT version of Form 1116 based on the information you enter. If the amount should be different for alternative minimum tax purposes, enter the adjusted amount in the AMT, if different field.
Notes
Enter foreign source qualified dividends and gains included on Form 4952, line 4g. Do not include other foreign capital gain amounts entered on this form. Foreign capital gain adjustments calculated on the Foreign Tax Credit Worksheets, if applicable, adjusts the foreign gross income amount.
Enter 100 percent of the foreign gross income. ExacTax uses entries made in the View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab > Other Allocations group box to allocate the foreign gross income between the estate or trust and its beneficiaries.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
255
Foreign source: Qualified dividends
Enter foreign qualified dividends less the amount of foreign qualified dividends included on Form 4952, line 4g. Form 1116, line 1 is adjusted as necessary based on the Form 1116 instructions. Note that foreign qualified dividends are considered a portion of the ordinary dividends included in the Foreign source: Gross income field. ExacTax automatically calculates an AMT version of Form 1116 based on the information you enter. If the amount should be different for alternative minimum tax purposes, enter the adjusted amount in the AMT, if different field.
Note: Enter 100 percent of the foreign qualified dividends. ExacTax uses entries made in the View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab > Other Allocations group box to allocate the foreign qualified dividends between the estate or trust and its beneficiaries.
Foreign source: Short-term… / Long-term capital gain / loss
Enter short-term and long-term foreign capital gains and losses to calculate the Foreign Tax Credit Worksheets. Enter long-term foreign capital gains less the amount for foreign source gains included on Form 4952, line 4g. Enter a loss as a negative number. ExacTax produces Worksheets A and B from the Form 1116 instructions for up to two categories of income. Form 1116, lines 1 and 5 are adjusted as necessary based on the results of these worksheets. ExacTax automatically calculates an AMT version of Form 1116 based on the information you enter. If the amount should be different for alternative minimum tax purposes, enter the adjusted amount in the AMT, if different field.
Note: Enter 100 percent of the foreign capital gain / loss. ExacTax uses entries made in the View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab > Other Allocations group box to allocate the foreign capital gain / loss between the estate or trust and its beneficiaries.
Definitely related expenses
Enter deductions that relate directly to foreign gross income in this field. ExacTax automatically calculates an AMT version of Form 1116 based on the information you enter. If the amount should be different for alternative minimum tax purposes, enter the adjusted amount in the AMT, if different field.
Note: Enter 100 percent of the related expenses. ExacTax uses entries made in the View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab > Other Allocations group box to allocate the related expenses between the estate or trust and its beneficiaries.
Pro rata share of: Itemized / standard deductions
ExacTax assumes that for the deductions that print on Form 1041, Page 1, lines 10 through 15b, only real estate taxes are allocable to foreign income. If this is not true, use this field to override the amount of itemized deductions that ExacTax calculates. ExacTax automatically calculates an AMT version of Form 1116 based on the information you enter. If the amount should be different for alternative minimum tax purposes, enter the adjusted amount in the AMT, if different field.
Notes
Enter 100 percent of the deductions. ExacTax uses entries made in the View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab > Other Allocations group box to allocate the deductions between the estate or trust and its beneficiaries.
Because real estate taxes are an adjustment on Schedule I, ExacTax does not default an amount for alternative minimum tax purposes.
Pro rata share of: Other deductions
2016 Fiduciary Manual
256
Enter the amount of other deductions allocable to the foreign gross income. ExacTax automatically calculates an AMT version of Form 1116 based on the information you enter. If the amount should be different for alternative minimum tax purposes, enter the adjusted amount in the AMT, if different field.
Pro rata share of: Home mortgage interest
ExacTax does not include interest in its calculation of itemized / standard deductions. Enter the amount of home mortgage interest for Form 1116, line 4a to include interest in the calculation. If the amount should be different for alternative minimum tax purposes, enter the adjusted amount in the AMT, if different field.

Date foreign taxes paid or accrued
Enter the date foreign taxes were paid or accrued using a MMDDYY format. Enter either V or a date of 999999 to print "Various" for the date.

In foreign currency …
In foreign currency denominations, enter the amount of taxes withheld on foreign dividend income, rents and royalties, and interest.
Note: Enter 100 percent of the taxes withheld in these fields. ExacTax uses entries made in the View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab > Other Allocations group box to allocate the taxes between the estate or trust and its beneficiaries.
In US dollars …
In U.S. dollars, enter the amount of taxes withheld on foreign dividend income, rents and royalties, and interest.
Notes
Enter 100 percent of the taxes withheld in these fields. ExacTax uses entries in the View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab > Other Allocations group box to allocate the taxes between the estate or trust and its beneficiaries.

Form [91B] - Net Operating Loss Carryovers
Overview
Use this form to enter information to adjust the current-year net operating loss and to calculate Form 1045, Schedule B, NOL carryover.
Prior-year returns
ExacTax cannot recalculate the prior-year tax returns. Therefore, complete the following steps before you complete Form NOL-2.
1. Obtain copies of the original returns for years to which you are carrying information back.
2. Recalculate the prior year’s tax returns that are affected by the carryback. In other words, if there is a current-year NOL and you are carrying the NOL back to preceding tax years, recalculate the prior-year returns, taking the carryback into consideration.
3. Use the original returns and the recalculated returns to complete Form NOL-2.
Notes
Form NOL-2 allows multiple units. When the NOL carryback eliminates or reduces a general business credit in any earlier year, you may be able to transfer back the released credit three more years. If you carry back the unused credit to tax years before the three years preceding the current tax year, a second Form 1045 is required.
To calculate a five-year carryback of a farming loss, you must have two units of Form NOL-2. In the first unit, enter information for the third, second, and first preceding tax years. In the second unit, enter information for the fifth and fourth preceding year information.
If you use an amended Form 1041 instead of Form 1045 to request a refund, you can use Form 1045, Schedules A and B as attachments to Form 1041.
Computation of Decrease in Tax
Use this section to enter information to complete the corresponding section of Form 1045, Page 1.
Tax year ended
ExacTax defaults to the three tax year ends preceding the current year. To change the calculated date, enter a date in these fields.
Note: If filing the Form 1045 to carry back a general business credit released by the previous carryback of a net operating loss, enter the year to which the credit is being carried.
Income tax
Enter the income tax before and after the carryback. Use the field for the Method used to figure prior year tax field on Form NOL to explain the method used to figure the tax.
Credits
Use the field to identify the credits for line 20.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
290
If a nonrefundable credit was limited to a tentative minimum tax in a preceding tax year, enter the limited credit amount in this field.
Taxes

Schedule B - NOL Carryover
Use this section to enter information to complete Form 1045, Schedule B.

Use this section to enter information to complete the Form 1045 Worksheet for Electing Small Business and Qualified Subchapter S Trust.

Income required to be distributed (Force) / Other amounts paid, credited, or distributed (Force)
ExacTax/1041-CA automatically calculates the distribution amounts on Form 541, Page 3, Schedule B, lines 9 and 10 using the beneficiary share of net income amounts on the Allocation of Expenses by Income Type Worksheets. Use these fields to override the calculated amounts.
Tax-exempt income included in total distributions (Force)
ExacTax/1041-CA automatically calculates the amount of tax-exempt income included on Form 541, Page 3, Schedule B, line 11.
Computation of income distribution deduction for pooled income fund
Information in the field transfers from the Pooled income funds: Computation of income distribution deduction dialog on federal Form Allocate. If the California data differs from the federal data, delete the data (if you don’t want the amount on the state return at all) or enter the state amount in the Amount column. ExacTax displays the new data in black. ExacTax will not overwrite the new data with subsequent federal-to-state transfers.
For a pooled income fund, ExacTax/1041-CA calculates an income distribution deduction amount but does not complete Schedule B.
Generally, any changes made to the federal field are automatically reflected in the state dialog. However, items that are deleted at the state level are not re-transferred; items added at the state level are not overwritten by subsequent transfers; and information in columns that do not exist at the federal level is not deleted by subsequent transfers.

Form [CA5A] - California Estimates
Overview
Use this form to complete Forms 541, 541-QFT, and 541-ES.
Overpayment
To have ExacTax/1041-CA calculate next year’s estimated tax liability and required payments, enter 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 in the Application of current year overpayment field, or make an entry in the Next year declaration field.
Application of current year overpayment
The code options available are the same as those in ExacTax/1041. They instruct ExacTax/1041-CA how to apply any current-year overpayment. The entry affects what prints on Form 541, Page 2 of the return and the calculation of estimated tax payments for next year. The overpayment options are listed in the fieldview and in the following table.
Code Description
1 Refund 100 percent of the overpayment. This is the default option.
2 Apply 100 percent of the overpayment to next year’s estimates; refund excess. This option applies the overpayment to each estimate in full until the overpayment is exhausted or until all estimated payments are made, in which case the excess is refunded.
3 Apply to first estimate of next year; refund excess.
4 Apply equally to each estimate; refund excess. This option divides the total overpayment by the number of next year payments desired, applies this amount to each estimate, and refunds any excess overpayment.
5 Apply the portion of the overpayment shown in the Amount for code 5 or 8 field to the estimates until the amount is exhausted or all payments are made, in which case the excess is refunded.
6 Apply to first and second estimates of next year; refund excess.
7 Apply 100 percent of this overpayment to next year’s estimates; provide no refund.
8 Apply amount specified below in the Amount for code 5 or 8 field. If this code is entered and the Next year declaration field is blank, estimates do not calculate.
Amount for code 5 or 8
Enter the amount of overpayment for ExacTax/1041-CA to use in the calculation of estimates.
Form 541-ES
To have ExacTax/1041-CA calculate the estimated tax liability and the required payments for next year, enter option 2 through 7 in the Application of current year overpayment field in the previous section, or make an entry in the Next year declaration field.
Notes
Estimates are not prepared for grantor and agency trusts unless code 5 or 9 is entered in the Next year declaration field.
ExacTax/1041-CA calculates safe harbor estimates at 110% of current year tax for returns with federal taxable income over $150,000 only when code 1, 3, or 8 is entered in the Next year declaration field.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
363
Next year declaration
The codes used are the same as those in ExacTax/1041. They tell ExacTax/1041-CA which method to use to determine the amount of the estimated tax for next year. If code 2 through 7 is entered in the Application of current year overpayment field in the previous section, ExacTax/1041-CA defaults to option 1 in the Next year declaration field. If both fields are blank, ExacTax/1041-CA does not generate estimate vouchers or estimate filing instruction information. The options for the Next year declaration field are listed in the fieldview and in the following table.
Code Description
1 Use the current-year income tax liability. This is the default if option 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 is entered in the Application of current year overpayment field.
Note: If the current-year tax is less than the minimum filing requirements, the vouchers do not print.
2 Use the current-year income tax liability plus the adjustment in the Amount for code 2 field. If this option is selected, also enter an adjustment to the current-year tax liability in the Amount for code 2 field. If the adjustment represents a decrease, enter a negative amount.
3 Use the current-year income tax liability even if the total liability falls below the minimum amount required to make estimated payments.
5 Use amounts entered below. If this code is selected, also enter amounts in the Amounts for code 5 or 9 or Amounts for next year’s payments made fields.
Note: These amounts are adjusted by any overpayment applied.
6 Use the current-year amounts plus the adjustments in the Amounts for code 6 fields. If this code is selected, also enter adjustments to the current-year amounts in the Amounts for code 6 fields. If the adjustment represents a decrease, enter a negative amount.
8 Use next year’s tax rates to calculate liability. Select this code to calculate next year’s estimates when tax rates change from year to year. If you select this code and the rates for the next year have not changed, estimates are calculated as if you selected code 1.
Note: If the current-year tax is less than the minimum filing requirements, the vouchers do not print.
9 Use amounts entered below. If this code is selected, also enter amounts in the Amounts for code 5 or 9 or Amounts for next year’s payments made fields.
Note: These amounts are not adjusted by any overpayment.
Amount for code 2
Enter an adjustment amount for ExacTax/1041-CA to use in the calculation of estimates if 2 is selected for the Next year declaration field. If the adjustment represents a decrease, enter it as a negative amount.
Amounts for code 5 or 9: 1st - 4th payment
Use these fields to specify the estimate amounts for each quarter.
If you enter code 5 in the Next year declaration field, enter the desired quarterly payments in these fields. These amounts adjust by the overpayment applied, if applicable and print on the vouchers.
If you enter code 9 in the Next year declaration field, enter the desired quarterly payments in these fields. ExacTax/1041-CA prints these amounts on the vouchers without adjustment.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
364
Amounts for next year’s payments made: 1st - 4th payment
Use these fields to enter any estimated payments already made toward the next year.
If you enter code 1, 2, 3, 6, or 8 in the Next year declaration field, enter the amounts paid for each next year estimate. These amounts and the overpayment applied are subtracted from the calculated quarterly estimated tax liability to determine the voucher amounts.
Amounts for code 6
Enter adjustment amounts if code 6 is entered in the Next year declaration field. If an adjustment represents a decrease, enter it as a negative amount.
Number of vouchers desired next year, if other than four
Enter a code to specify fewer than four vouchers. The options for the number of vouchers are listed in the fieldview and in the following table. The overpayment and amounts already paid toward next year estimates are applied to each voucher based on the overpayment code and the quarter in which the amounts were paid.
Code Description
3 The last three vouchers are generated. Any unpaid balance from the first estimate is included in the second estimate voucher.
2 The last two vouchers are generated. Any unpaid balance from the first or second estimate is included in the third estimate voucher.
1 100 percent of the gross estimated tax liability is allocated to the fourth voucher.
A 100 percent of the gross estimated tax liability is allocated to the first voucher.
B 100 percent of the gross estimated tax liability is allocated to the second voucher.
C 100 percent of the gross estimated tax liability is allocated to the third voucher.
Factor for rounding estimates
Enter rounding specifications for the estimated payments to round the payments up to the nearest factor indicated. For example, to round up each estimated payment to the nearest $10, enter 10. If this field is blank, ExacTax/1041-CA automatically rounds each estimated payment up to the next dollar.
Treat 4th quarter estimate as due 12/31
Enter X to have ExacTax/1041-CA print the year end date instead of the standard fourth payment date on the Estimated Tax Payments Worksheet and in the estimate filing instructions.

Form [CA5B] - California Payments, Extension, Penalties
Overview
Use this form to complete Forms 541, 541-QFT, 3563, 5805, and 5805F.
Payments and Other Taxes
Use this section to enter payments and other taxes not entered elsewhere. ExacTax/1041-CA uses this information to complete the Tax and Payments section of Form 541 and in the calculations for Forms 5805 and 5805F.
Note: State estimated tax payments are entered on federal Form StPmt so that they can be used as deductions on the federal return. Amounts you enter in the State Payments section of federal Form StPmt with a postal code of CA are used on Form 541, Page 1 and Form 541-QFT (or Form 541-T when applicable).
Withholding not entered elsewhere
Enter an amount to adjust Form 541, line 29 or Schedule K-1 (Form 541), line 13b, depending on the percentages entered in the Withheld income taxes / backup withholding field in the View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab > Other Allocations section.
Note: Form 541, line 29 must equal state withholding entered on federal Forms 1099R, W2, and W2G coded to California for the return to be electronically filed.
Withholding to reclassify
Enter an amount to adjust Form 541, line 31, so it equals the amount withheld on Forms 592-B and 593 received from withholding entities. This amount is subtracted from the withholding available for Form 541, line 29 or for Schedule K-1 (Form 541), line 13b, depending on the percentages entered in the Withheld income taxes / backup withholding field in the View > Beneficiary Information > Federal tab > Other Allocations section.
Note: Form 541, line 29 must equal state withholding entered on federal Forms 1099R, W2, and W2G coded to California for the return to be electronically filed.
Paid with extension, for Form 541
Each time you print the extension (via File > Print Extensions), ExacTax:
calculates the extension payment amount and prints it on the extension voucher
enters the calculated amount in this field, and
prints this amount on the main return.
Form 5870A
Enter the tax from the accumulation distribution of trusts that you calculated on Form 5870A. ExacTax/1041-CA prints "Form 5870A" in a statement for Form 541, line 21b.
Note: Form 5870A is available as a noncalculating form.
Section 453A interest
Enter the amount of interest due under IRC section 453A(c). ExacTax/1041-CA prints "IRC Section 453A" in a statement for line 21b.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
367
Qualified settlement fund tax
Enter the amount of qualified settlement fund (QSF) tax to report on Form 541, Page 1, line 21c.
Credit recapture
Use the field to enter recapture amounts or interest owed by the estate or trust from Forms 3501, 3534, 3535, 3805Z, 3806, 3807, 3808, 3809, and 3834. ExacTax/1041-CA includes this amount on Form 541, line 34, or subtracts the amount from line 35, as appropriate.
Use tax
Enter the amount of use tax to report on Form 541, Page 2, line 38.
Extension
Use this section to complete Form 3563 and to extend the due date of the return. To print Form 3563, choose File > Print Extensions.
Extended due date
If you print an extension by choosing File > Print Extensions, the extended due date automatically appears in this field. Otherwise, enter the date to use as the extended due date in the calculation of late-filing penalties and in the filing instructions. If this field is blank, it is assumed that the return is not extended.
Balance due on extension (Force)
If you enter an amount in this field, ExacTax/1041-CA does the following:
completes the Extended due date field, and
transfers the amount to the Paid with extension, for Form 541 field.
Penalties and Interest
Use this section to enter information for the calculation of Forms 5805 and 5805F late-filing interest and penalties.
Date filed, if other than due date of return
If the date entered is after the return due date, ExacTax/1041-CA automatically calculates the penalty for failure to pay, failure to file, and interest on the underpayment. If this field is blank, ExacTax/1041-CA defaults to the original due date of the return. ExacTax/1041-CA prints interest and penalty amounts, if applicable, in the Tax and Payments section of Form 541, Page 2.
Waiver requested: Amount / Equal to penalty calculated
If a partial waiver of the underpayment penalty is requested, enter the amount in the Amount field. If a waiver of 100 percent of the penalty is requested, enter X in the Equal to penalty calculated field.
Note: If you enter an amount in the Amount field, ExacTax uses this as the waiver amount, regardless of any entry in the Equal to penalty calculated field.
Waiver requested: Explanation
The information entered in the field prints on an accompanying statement and marks the Yes checkbox for waiver of the penalty on Form 5805, Page 1.
2016 Fiduciary Manual
368
Withholding, as actually withheld
To have withholding credited as actually withheld, enter the amount of state income tax withheld from all sources for each period. The amounts entered in these fields transfer to Form 5805, Part I, line 3.
Prior year: Tax after credits / … / Tax on lump-sum distribution
If ExacTax/1041-CA was used in the prior year, this information proformas automatically. Otherwise, enter the prior year amount. Enter 0 (zero) if there was no tax liability last year. ExacTax/1041-CA uses this information to determine the estimate requirements for Form 5805, Part II, and to calculate the required installments for Part III.
Note: If you leave the Tax after credits field blank, ExacTax/1041-CA defaults to using the current-year tax to determine the amount of estimated tax payment penalty that the estate or trust is required to pay.
Tax year less than 12 months
If ExacTax/1041-CA was used in the prior year, this information proformas automatically. Otherwise, if the prior year was a short year, enter X. If there is input in this field, ExacTax/1041-CA does not complete Form 5805, Part II, line 5 or Form 5805-F, Part I, line 7, and calculates the underpayment penalty using only the current year tax amounts.
Regular method calculation (Force)
ExacTax/1041-CA uses the short method of calculating the penalty, if possible. Enter X to force ExacTax/1041-CA to use the regular method of calculating the penalty.
Suppress on Form 541: Underpayment of estimated tax penalty
ExacTax/1041-CA prints Form 5805 or 5805-F and enters the amount on the applicable line on Form 541 or 541-QFT. Enter X to suppress the printing of Form 5805 or 5805-F and the calculation of the underpayment penalty on the return.
Note: ExacTax prints Form 5805 or 5805-F as the instructions state conditions for printing. If the Underpayment of estimated tax penalty field is marked, Form 5805 or 5805-F does not print. To suppress the penalty but print the form, enter X in the Underpayment of estimated tax penalty field, choose View > Form, then choose Edit > Overrides > Force Form To Print.
Suppress on Form 541: Late interest

Form [CA10B] - California Farm Expenses, Other, Passives
Overview
Use this form to complete federal Schedule F with California amounts. Amounts that appear on Form CAF-2 transfer automatically from federal Form F-2. It is important that any state-related law differences and details are reported on Form CAF-2.
Depreciation (Force)
If the asset module is used, it determines the depreciation expense for each activity. If the depreciation amount is incorrect, use this field to override the calculated amount. However, it is strongly recommended that the information be changed in the asset module to ensure that the state version(s) of the appropriate form(s) are correct.
Carryovers
If available, state-specific carryover information proformas into these fields. When state-specific information is not available to proforma, the federal carryover amounts transfer to these fields.
Note: ExacTax treats blank Alternative Minimum Tax fields as having no AMT carryover. ExacTax does not use the regular carryovers as a default AMT amount. If there is no difference between the regular and AMT carryover, enter the same amount in both the Regular and Alternative Minimum Tax fields. ExacTax also uses this information to complete Schedule P and Form 3801, if applicable.

Form [CA22] - California Alternative Minimum Tax
Overview
Use this form to complete Form 3510; Schedule P, Parts I and II; and the ESBT Form 3510 Worksheet.
Adjustments and Preferences
Use this section to enter California adjustments and preferences based on total income under California law and on California source income. ExacTax/1041-CA uses this information to calculate Schedule P, Parts I and II.
Note: If no amount is entered for an item in the California Source column, ExacTax/1041-CA uses the California law amount on Schedule P to calculate the California source AMT adjustment for Schedule K-1. For the fields marked with asterisks, if the California Law column is blank, ExacTax/1041-CA defaults to the amount reported at the federal level.
Aggregate gross receipts (Force)
ExacTax automatically calculates aggregate gross receipts for the adjustment required on Schedule P. Use this field to force the return to qualify or disqualify for the adjustments. For returns that meet the aggregate gross receipts test, ExacTax automatically excludes all adjustments and preferences related to trade or business income from Schedule P, excludes taxable income from business and rental activities (AMTI exclusion), and calculates Schedule P separately for beneficiaries.
Qualified home mortgage interest
Enter the California adjustment for mortgage interest if it differs from the amount reported at the federal level.
Refund of property taxes
ExacTax/1041-CA completes Schedule P, line 4d with information entered in the Other income field on federal Form Income with state use code 4. Enter an amount to override the calculation for line 4d.
Depreciation adjustment (post ’86)
The asset module calculates the post-1986 preference amount and allocates the amount attributable to passive activities to Schedule P, line 4n, and the balance to line 4e. ExacTax/1041-CA calculates line 4e from this and information entered on Forms CAC-2, CAF-2, CAK1-3, CAK1T-2, CARent-2, and CADepr. Use this field to override a different amount for line 4e.
Circulation and research expenditures
Enter the California adjustment for circulation and research expenditures if it differs from the amount reported at the federal level. This amount is combined with information entered on Forms CAC-2, CAF-2, CAK1-3, and CARent-2 and transfers to Schedule P, line 4f.
Mining costs
Enter the California adjustments for mining costs if they differ from those reported at the federal level. This amount is combined with information entered on Forms CAC-2, CAF-2, CAK1-3, and CARent-2 and transfers to Schedule P, line 4g.

Intangible drilling costs
Enter the California adjustment for intangible drilling costs if it differs from that reported at the federal level. This amount is combined with information entered on Forms CAC-2, CAF-2, CAK1-3, and CARent-2 and transfers to Schedule P, line 4q.
California qualified stock options
Enter the California adjustment for the amount of compensation excluded from the employee’s gross income for regular tax from the exercise of California qualified stock options (CQSOs). This amount is the difference between the FMV of the corporation’s stock on the date the option is exercised and the amount the employee paid for the stock. This amount transfers to Schedule P, line 4r.
Alternative minimum tax net operating loss carryback
If this is an amended return, enter the amount of AMT net operating loss carryback from later years. If you leave this field blank, ExacTax/1041-CA uses the amount from the Net operating loss carryback (Force) field on Form CADed to calculate the current deduction.

Form 541-B, Part III - Accumulation Schedule
Use this section to enter information to complete Form 541-B, the Carryover Reports - Total Source and State Source and Schedule K-1 for charitable remainder trusts.
Interest income / … / Alternative minimum tax adjustment
Enter the income of a section 664 trust that remains undistributed from prior tax years. For each income amount, if you leave the California Law or California column amount blank, ExacTax/1041-CA uses the amount from the Federal column to calculate state source income available for distribution and the carryover amounts available for distribution in future years on the Total Source and State Source Carryover Reports. If ExacTax/1041-CA was used to calculate the client’s prior-year return, this information proformas automatically.
Tax-exempt income
Enter the income of a section 664 trust that remains undistributed from prior tax years. If the Tax-exempt income field is left blank, ExacTax/1041-CA treats the amount in the Total column as out-of-state income when calculating the adjustment for beneficiaries on Schedule K-1 and the carryover amounts on the California Carryover Report - State Source. If ExacTax/1041-CA was used to calculate the client’s prior-year return, this information proformas automatically.
Net Operating Loss
Use this section to enter information for net operating loss deductions.

If ExacTax/1041-CA was used in the prior year, this information proformas automatically. Otherwise, enter all types of NOL carryovers, and current-year eligible small business loss, new business loss, and disaster information in this field. Any current-year loss not identified as qualifying for special treatment as an eligible small business, new business, or disaster defaults to general NOL treatment. ExacTax uses this information to calculate Form 3805V.
The following information describes how the entries in the attached field affect the calculation of the tax return.

Short-term / Long-term: Alternative minimum tax: Other California Law
Enter the AMT capital loss carryover amount if it differs from the regular tax amount. UltraTax 1041-CA prints these amounts on the California Schedule D - Recomputed for AMT Worksheet, line 9.

Short-term / Long-term: Alternative minimum tax: Other California Source / ESBT California Source
Enter the California source AMT capital loss carryover amount if it differs from the regular tax amount.

If you leave this field blank, ExacTax assumes that there is no difference between the AMT amount and the regular amount.
Short-term / Long-term: Alternative minimum tax: ESBT California Law

Form [CA33] - California Real Estate Withholding Tax Statement
Overview
Use Form CA593 to enter data from Form 593, Resident and Nonresident Withholding Tax Statement. This information is included in an electronically filed return as required by the Franchise Tax Board. Information entered on this form is not included in the calculation of the return. California real estate withholding must be entered in the Taxes, not entered elsewhere field on federal Form Deduct, with a Tax Type code of 4 and a Postal Code of CA to print on federal Form 1041, line 11, and on Form 541, line 31.
For returns filed electronically, amounts reported as real estate and other withholding on Form 541 require supplemental data entry in Forms CA593 and CA592B. The amount on Form 541, line 31 must equal the sum of the amounts entered in Form CA592B in the Total California tax withheld and Total backup withholding fields and Form CA593 in the Amount withheld from this seller field. To move an amount from Form 541, line 29 to line 31, enter the amount in the Withholding to reclassify field on Form CAPay.
If withholding is entirely allocated to beneficiaries so there is no amount on Form 541, line 31, leave Forms CA593 and CA592B blank.
Note: This form is applicable only to electronically filed returns.
