Question

Audrey incurred $200,000 of student loan debt completing medical school. Under her agreement to provide medical services to an underserved area for a specified time period, her student loan debt was canceled. How much, if any, of the canceled debt is taxable to her?

Selection one:

a-$100,000

b-$50,000

c-$200,000

d-$0

What is the maximum dollar value of all non-qualified plan awards received by a taxpayer from an employer during a year that usually may be excluded from income?

Selection one:

a-$1,600

b-$2,500

c-$50

d-$400

Explanation / Answer

For Audrey, $0 would be taxable to her. 2010 health care reform law also allowed loans to be forgiven for health care professionals if they worked for a minimum amount of time in underserved areas. So option D( $0 ) is correct.

  

If the awards you receive is non-qualified, the value of the other non-qualified awards that your employer gives you over the course of the year has to be $400 or less.so option D ( $400 ) is correct.
