Expert Solution
Amount to be included in gross income

Each cash flow of $20,000 represents two amounts, one is return of original investment and one is income on investment. The income portion of the cash flow will be included in gross income.

Return of Original Investment=InvestmentTerm=$145,00010 years=$14,500

Income Portion=Total Cash flow-Return of Original Investment=$20,000-$14,500=$5,500

Amount to be included in gross income is $5,500.
