I am filling out a 1041 for a trust for a deceased relative (using TT Business).  All assets were held at an investment firm who charged a fee for assets under management. Where would I deduct this fee charged by the investment firm?

    You can't deduct that fee because it's the same fee that would be paid by an individual and it's a miscellaneous itemized deduction which was eliminated by tax reform.
