Income Taxes
Effective January 1, 2018, the statutory Federal income tax rate for the Trust decreased from 35% to 21%. The Trust’s effective Federal income tax rate is less than the 21% statutory rate because taxable income is reduced by statutory percentage depletion allowed on mineral royalty income.
The Trust structured the $100.0 million land sale in January 2019 as a §1031exchange for federal income tax purposes. As a result, the current federal income tax liability and current federal income tax expense were each reduced by approximately $21.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019.
