Estate accounting refers to the recording and reporting of financial events from the time of a person's death until the ultimate distribution of all property. 43. If an individual dies intestate then that person did not create a legal will prior to death. Therefore, there is no executor or executrix and the court will appoint an administrator/administratrix to attend to fiduciary estate responsibilities. 44. A devise is a gift of real property such as land or a building. 45. The purpose of the Uniform Probate Code is to encourage consistent laws governing wills and estates among the states. 46. In some states, real property is conveyed directly to the beneficiary or co-owner at the time of death and would not be included in the inventory of estate. 47. The fair value of property must be determined at the date of death or on the alternative valuation date (six months after death or the date of disposition after death, whichever is earlier), at the option of the executor. 48. A remainderman of trust property is a person who receives the principal from a trust after someone else has received income from the trust for a given period of time. 49. Probate laws generally are designed to (1) gather, preserve, and account for all of the decedent's property; (2) carry out an orderly and fair settlement of all debts; and (3) discover the decedent's intent for the remaining property held at death and then follow those wishes. 50. An executor is a specific person named in the will to fulfill the fiduciary responsibilities of satisfying all applicable laws and making certain that the decedent's wishes are achieved, if possible. If the will does not designate an executor, or the named executor is unwilling or unable to serve, an administrator is appointed by the court to fulfill the same responsibilities. 51. The order of priority is as follows: (1) expenses of administering the estate, (2) funeral expenses and medical expenses of the last illness, (3) debts and taxes given preference under federal and state laws, and (4) all other claims. 52. A legacy, also called a bequest, is a gift of personal property such as stocks or furniture.
