Respuesta :

Answer:

Gross income = $1,000

Explanation:

Given:

Total beneficiary of insurance amount = $100,000

Total number of equal payment = 10

Each installment amount receives = $11,000

Computation of each payment amount proposed:

Each payment amount proposed = $100,000 / 10

Each payment amount proposed = $10,000

Computation of gross income:

Gross income = Each installment amount receives - Each payment amount proposed

Gross income = $11,000 - $10,000

Gross income = $1,000
