Nate correctly deducted the $1,200 of insurance premiums on his 2022 tax return. He had $170,000 of taxable income that year. On March 31, 2023, he sold the delivery truck and, as a result, received a $300 refund on his insurance premiums. Nate's marginal tax rate was 40% in 2022 and 2023. As a result of the above: answer choices: Nate should not include any income in 2023 because an insurance reimbursement does not result in income. Nate should include the $300 in 2023 gross income. Nate should amend his 2022 return and claim $300 less insurance expense. Nate should include $1,200 in gross income in 2023. Nate should include half of the amount ($600) in income in 2023.
