Answer:

A. $24,000

B. $50,400

Explanation:

A. Calculation for her gross income from the annuity payments in the first year

First step is to calculate the exclusion per payment

Exclusion per payment= $42,000/210

Exclusion per payment= $200

Now let calculate her Gross income

Collections in 2019 $25,200

(6 annuity payments*$4,200)

Less Exclusion for capital recovery ($1,200)

(6 annuity payments*$200)

Gross income $24,000

($25,200-$1,200)

Therefore her gross income from the annuity payments in the first year will be $24,000

B. Calculation for her gross income from the annuity payments in the twenty-fourth year

Gross income=$4,200 × 12 annuity payments

Gross income= $50,400

Therefore her gross income from the annuity payments in the twenty-fourth year will be $50,400
