I am self-employed as an IT consultant for 2.5 years and want to lower my 2015 taxable income by opening a SEP IRA with E*TRADE. Am I eligible for a SEP-IRA deduction for 2015 if I make a contribution of $20,000 by the end of 2015? My gross income for 2015 is approximately $160,000.

I am a trustee and one of five equal beneficiaries to my deceased mother’s Revocable Trust in Florida. The trust assets, consisting of savings periodically invested in CDs, were liquidated after her death, and the proceeds were transferred to her trust checking account. The total trust assets are $125,500, including $125,000 of principle and $500 of interest income upon which tax has not yet been paid. Upon distribution to beneficiaries, what portion of their individual distributions will be subject to Federal Income tax?
