Each charity receives a large investment in shares of a publicly traded company. The investment must be held forever. Charity A can spend the resulting income as it sees fit.

Carmen had worked for Sparrow Corporation for thirty years when she died of a heart attack at age 60. She was practically penniless at the time of her death, owed a $12,000 hospital bill, and had a disabled spouse. The company was very concerned about its public image, and rather than run the risk of embarrassment from one of its long-term employees dying and leaving her spouse with insufficient means, the Board of Directors agreed to pay Carmen’s hospital bill and to give her spouse $6,000 per year for the rest of his life. Discuss both sides of the question whether Carmen (or her estate) and her spouse realize any taxable income from the above.
