# ITEM F
If applicable, enter the beneficiary's percentage of allocated income for the tax year.
# PART III
A beneficiary who is a resident of Arkansas must report income from sources within and outside Arkansas. Nonresidents only report their Arkansas allocated share of income. The AR K-1FE has two columns for most boxes in Part III. The first column is income allocated and apportioned to Arkansas.
This column should be completed by both resident and nonresident beneficiaries. The second column should be completed by resident beneficiaries only.
The column should include the residents share of income (loss) from all sources, including income
(loss) earned from other states.
For example, a nonresident trust has $100,000.00 of business income, $30,000.00 of which is allocated and apportioned to Arkansas. The trust has a nonresident and resident beneficiary each receiving 50% of income (loss). On AR K-1FE, the trust would report $15,000.00 in column 1, box 3a, for both the nonresident and resident beneficiary. The trust would report $50,000.00 income from all sources, in column 2, box 3b, for the resident beneficiary.
