(a) The provisions of this Act, as far as applicable, shall apply to nontrust estates subject to any agreement of the parties or any specific direction by statute or otherwise, and the references to trusts and trustees shall be read as applying to nontrust estates and to legal tenants (including life tenants, tenants for terms of years, or any other period of tenancy) and remaindermen as the context requires; except that if either a legal tenant or a remainderman has incurred a charge for his benefit without the consent or agreement of the other, he shall pay that charge in full.
(b) If the costs of an improvement, including special taxes or assessments, representing an addition to value of property forming part of the principal cannot reasonably be expected to outlast the legal tenancy, the costs shall be paid by the legal tenant. If the improvement can reasonably be expected to outlast the legal tenancy, only a portion of the costs shall be paid by the legal tenant and the balance by the remainderman. The portion payable by the legal tenant shall be that fraction of the total found by dividing the present value of the legal tenancy by the present value of an estate of the same form as that of the legal tenancy but limited to a period corresponding to the reasonably expected duration of the improvement. The computation of present value of the legal tenancy shall be computed on the basis of two-thirds of the value determined by use of the tables set forth under Section 7520 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and the regulations thereunder for the calculation of the values of annuities, life estates, and terms for years, and no other evidence of duration or expectancy shall be considered, except that any legal tenancy or remainder interest acquired for consideration based on those tables shall be computed on the basis of the tables in effect at the time acquired. The method of computing the present value of a legal tenancy established in this subsection shall apply to all legal tenancies and remainders created after January 1, 1992 and to all legal tenancies and remainders which were acquired for consideration if the amount of the consideration was based on the tables set forth under Section 2031 or 7520 of the Internal Revenue Code then in effect.
(c) If a legal tenant has leased any lands for agricultural or farming operations and his legal tenancy terminates on or after the day any rent has become due and payable, he or his representative is entitled to recover that rent from the lessee; and if a legal tenancy terminates before the rent under the lease is fully paid, the legal tenant or his representative is entitled to recover from the lessee:
