Answer and Explanation:

Given:

Insurance amount receive = $750,000

Total amount paid = $69,200

Current Surrender value = $82,500

A. Zero

Note: All benefits receive from life insurance policy will be exempted from all tax.

B. If Ira liquidates the policy, the excess amount received on surrender value over the amount paid will be considered as gross income.

Gross income = Surrender value - Amount paid

= $82,500 - $69,200  

= $13,300
