This year Samantha's employer paid $2,200 in disability premiums for Samantha as a nontaxable fringe benefit and Samantha paid the remaining $1,100 of premiums from her salary.

Answer: $12,000

Explanation:

Disability Insurance paid $18,000 to Samantha but Samantha had to pay $1,100 in premiums for the disability insurance while her employer paid $2,200. This premium that they both paid is the cost of her insurance payout for disability.

Her gross income will therefore be;

= [tex]\frac{2,200}{2,200 + 1,100}[/tex] * 18,000

= $12,000

This is her income because this is the percentage of the payout that was covered by her insurer.
