Taxable interest income $75,000 Tax-exempt interest income, not on private activity bonds 40,000 Tax-exempt interest income, on private activity bonds issued in 1999 20,000

Explanation / Answer

Individuals with a higher income may be subject to the Alternative Minimum Tax.

The AMT exemption amount for trusts is $23,100.

Taxable income - $75,000

Tax-exempt interest income, not on private activity bonds $40,000

Net = $ 35,000

Tax-exempt interest income, on private activity bonds issued in 1999 = $20,000

Net = $15,000

Since the net taxable is less than the threshold limit. No AMT is payable
