(b) if the non-resident trust estate is a listed country trust estate in relation to the year of income - the amount that would have been the net income of the non-resident trust estate of the year of income if the exempt income of the trust estate included all income and profits of the trust estate, other than eligible designated concession income in relation to any listed country in relation to the year of income;

reduced by:


(c) so much (if any) of the amount covered by paragraph (a) or (b) as represents:

(iv) (Repealed by No 62 of 2011)

(v) if an amount is or has been included in the assessable income of any taxpayer under section 102AAZD because the taxpayer is an attributable taxpayer in relation to any year of income (in this subparagraph called the taxpayer ' s year of income ) and in relation to a trust estate other than the non-resident trust estate - so much of an amount paid to the trustee of the non-resident trust estate as represents the attributable income of that other trust estate of the taxpayer ' s year of income; or

(vi) (Repealed by No 96 of 2004)

(vii) if:

(A) an attribution account payment is made to the trustee of the trust estate during the year of income; and

the amount of the attribution debit; or

(d) so much of any foreign tax or Australian tax paid by the trustee or a beneficiary as is attributable to so much of the amount covered by paragraph (a) or (b), as the case requires, as remains after the reduction or reductions covered by paragraph (c).


102AAU(2)    
The attributable income of a resident trust estate of a year of income is 0.

102AAU(3)    


For the purposes of sub-subparagraph (1)(c)(ii)(A), a beneficiary is to be taken to be a resident of a listed country if, and only if, the beneficiary is treated as a resident of the listed country for the purposes of the tax law of the listed country.

102AAU(4)    


If the tax law of a listed country adopts some criterion other than treatment as a resident as the criterion for applying a worldwide source tax base to a beneficiary, then, subsection (3) has effect, in relation to that tax law, as if that criterion were the same as treatment as a resident of the listed country for the purposes of that tax law.

102AAU(5)    
For the purposes of this section, where, because of section 101 , a beneficiary is presently entitled to a particular amount, the amount is taken to have been paid to the beneficiary.

102AAU(6)    


For the purposes of this section, the extent to which an amount referred to in subparagraph (1)(c)(i) or (ii) (in this subsection called the taxed amount ) represents the amount covered by paragraph (1)(b) (in this subsection called the listed country trust amount ) is calculated using the formula:


Taxed amount × Listed country trust amount
      Net income

where:

Listed country trust amount means the number of dollars in the listed country trust amount.

Taxed amount means the taxed amount.

Net income means the number of dollars in the net income of the non-resident trust estate concerned of the year of income concerned.
