A taxpayer, age 64, purchases an annuity from an insurance company for $62,000. She is to receive $517 per month for life. Her life expectancy is 20.8 years from the annuity starting date. Assuming that she receives $6,200 this year, what is the exclusion percentage, and how much is included in her gross income?

$3,220.90

Explanation:

Expected Return = $517 * 12 months * 20.8 years

Expected Return = $129,043.20

Exclusion Percentage = $62,000/ $129,043.20

Exclusion Percentage = 0.4804593

Exclusion Percentage = 48.05%

Exclusion amount = $6,200 * 48.05%

Exclusion amount = $2,979.1

Amount included in Income = $6,200 - $2,979.1

Amount included in Income = $3,220.90
