The question is asked a little awkwardly. Most people intend to ask how the deceased individuals assets are dealt with not the recipients/beneficiaries. However, the assets of a beneficiary's estate should increase since they are receiving assets from a deceased individual.

Also, if a beneficiary is deceased their assets, including any inheritance, will pass to their own beneficiaries under the terms of their will.
