102UE(2) Present entitlement cases.  

A person is an ultimate beneficiary in respect of the head trust amount if the person is a listed person and:

102UE(4) Full absorption of head trust amount.  

If the head trust amount is the whole or part of a share of the net income of the closely held trust, a person is also an ultimate beneficiary in respect of the head trust amount if:

(b) the person:

(i) is the trustee beneficiary; or

(ii) is presently entitled to the head trust amount indirectly through one or more interposed partnerships or trusts (other than as ultimate beneficiaries); and

(c) the head trust amount is not greater than the amount worked out using the formula:
lower level trust deductions - lower level trust assessable income

where:

lower level trust assessable income means the assessable income (disregarding any amount attributable to the head trust amount) taken into account in working out the net income of the lower level trust for the year of income.

lower level trust deductions means allowable deductions taken into account in working out the net income of the lower level trust for the year of income.
