    You are correct, the answer is B.

    The written trust instrument would be the starting place for creating any trust. The written trust instrument would provide for payment of fees to the trustee and designate any and all beneficiaries.

    Transferring the cash to the trustee would complete the creation of the trust.

    B–This is a total guess based on some question we had earlier about recognizing income to the extent of DNI.

    B is right – DNI is the maximum amount of income taxable to the beneficiaries. Since all of the income was distributed, the beneficiary is taxed on $14,000 and the trust has no taxable income.
