He realizes that his son will likely squander trust income he receives but wants to otherwise protect his son from his creditors. Which of the following trusts would you recommend that Henry establish for the benefit of his son?
A)
A support trust
B)
An irrevocable trust, including spendthrift provisions

Mark's father, Michael, loaned Mark $300,000
interest free for five years to invest in
securities that yield a 10 percent annual
return. At the end of the five years, Mark sells
the securities to repay his father.
Unfortunately, the market declined and Mark
was able to sell the securities for only
$280,000. Michael accepted the $280,000 as
payment in full on the loan. How do you think
this transaction will be treated for tax
purposes?

- Ms. Zelda has decided to invest $75,000 in state bonds. She could invest in State A bonds paying 5 percent annual interest or in State R bonds paying 5.4 percent annual interest. The bonds have the same risk, and the interest from both is exempt from federal income tax. Because Ms. Zelda is a resident of State A, she wouldn't pay State A's 8.5 percent personal income tax on the State A bond interest, but she would pay this tax on the State R bond interest. Ms. Zelda can deduct any state tax payments in the computation of her federal taxable income, and her federal marginal rate is 32 percent. Required: a. Compute Ms. Zelda's after-tax return from State A and State R bonds. 2. Should Ms. Zelda invest in the State A or the State R bonds? Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below. Required A Required B Compute Ms. Zelda's after-tax return from State A and State R bonds. Note: Enter costs with a minus sign.
