If a person is named the beneficiary of a policy does the amount become part of the estate even though the beneficiary has the entire tax burden?

The proceeds are includable in insured's gross estate if the insured legally possessed and could legally exercise any incidents of ownership at the time of his death. It does not matter that decedent did not have possession of the policy and therefore was unable to exercise his ownership rights at the time of his death (Comm. v. Est. of Noel, 380 U.S. 678 (1965)),
The beneficiary however does NOT pay Income Tax on the proceeds IRC Sec. 101(a)(1).

Can beneficiary of trust tell a trustee what to do?
They most certainly may not! The entire purpose of the trust is to prevent the beneficiary from controlling the trust. The responsibility lies with the trustee to maintain the trust as it was set up. Actually, it depends on what kind of a trust is involved. For example, a Land Trust is beneficiary driven....meaning the beneficiary tells the Trustee what to do by letter of direction. Most all other types of trusts are Trustee driven and decisions are made by the Trustee. Randy Hughes
How does the incidence of a tax use the price elasticity of supply and demand?
If the demand is perfectly elastic in prices (that is, demand falls to zero if the price for consumers is raised even the slightest bit), then the entire tax incidence falls on the producer since the producer would rather face the entire tax burden than lose all his consumers. And if the demand is perfectly inelastic (doesn't change with change in commodity price) then the entire burden falls on the consumers. So higher the price elasticity of demand, higher would be the share of taxes borne by the producer. And higher the price elasticity of supply, lower the share borne by the producer, by similar logic.

Yes. It all depends on the circumstances.
Can executor borrow money from the estate if they are the sole beneficiary?
Yes. I don't think 'borrow' is the right word, however, as the sole beneficiary will be entitled to the entire estate. An 'advance' would more likely be the correct term.

When a divorced father passes away and there's only a living will a small life insurance policy for the funeral and Daughter is made power of attorney is she responsible for remaining medical bill?
She is not responsible for the medical bill as long as the didn't sign at the hospital saying she was the responsible party. Was the daughter the beneficiary of the life insurance policy? If the beneficiary of the policy was the estate of the insured then the hospital can file a lien against the estate and life insurance to cover the medical bills. If the beneficiary was a funeral home to pay for a prearranged funeral then the hospital cannot attach the policy proceeds. If the beneficiary was the daughter directly then the hospital cannot claim the life insurance proceeds. However, this leaves the daughter with no obligation to use the entire amount for funeral arrangements.
