question about short term PIE cash fund

Hi everyone, I’m trying to understand what happened here and whether this is normal for PIE funds.

I recently put $30,000 into the Milford Cash Fund via InvestNow.

I held it for about one week, then withdrew.

When I withdrew, the value was about $30,010 (so roughly $10 gain).

However, after PIE tax was deducted (PIR 28%), I only received $29,892 back.

So effectively:

•	Invested: $30,000

•	Gross value at withdrawal: \~$30,010

•	PIE tax deducted: \~$118

•	Amount received: \~$29,892

•	Net loss: about $108

What confuses me is:

If I only gained about $10 while holding for one week, how could I owe $118 in PIE tax?

From what I understand, it seems like I may have bought just before an income allocation event and was allocated a larger amount of taxable income (around $420 based on 28% PIR), even though I only held for a short time.

Is this just a timing issue with PIE income allocation?

Is this normal behaviour for cash PIE funds if you enter/exit around a distribution date?

I want to make sure I’m understanding this correctly and didn’t miss something.

Thanks in advance.
