capital gain of a decedent

Feb 17, 2008 0 Replies

I am filling out the '07 1040 for someone who passed away last Sept. Decedent owned a mutual fund which paid a capital gain in December. Does this capital gain get prorated , or is the estate responsible for paying taxes on the entire amount? Thanks L
