Sec. 30. If a trustee determines that an allocation between principal and income required by section 31, 32, 33, 34, or 37 of this chapter is insubstantial, the trustee may allocate the entire amount to principal unless one (1) of the circumstances described in section 15(c) of this chapter applies to the allocation.

(2) the value of the asset producing the receipt for which the allocation would be made is less than ten percent (10%) of the total value of the trust's assets at the beginning of the accounting period.
