Respuesta :

Answer:

 =$2100

Explanation:

Figure out the amount of gross income by partha

The payment to be recieved monthly = $500

The number of payments to be recieved = 260 (Partha`s age is 65)

Thus,

Monthly exclusion = cost of annuiy / number of payments

       = [tex]\frac{52000}{260}[/tex]

         = $200

So,

Gross income = (monthly payment - monthly exclusion) * (nunmber of months)

       =  ($500 -  $200) * 7

        = $2100

Therefore,

partha will report gross income of $2100, from the annuity payment in 2018
