In the given question it is given as the distributable net income of the estate is $20,000 and it includes exempted interest income after adjusting with tax of $3,000. It paid to the beneficiaries $8,000, the distributive deduction in the question is the amount paid to the beneficiaries in proportion to the taxable income of the trust.

Taxable income would be $17,000 and exempt interest income is $3,000, if the distribution is divided in the ratio of the same, the distributive deduction would be $6,800.

= ($8,000 * {$17,000 : $20,000}) = $6,800.
