    The answer is D. $600. In general, the employee discount didn't result in taxable income to the recipient. The amount that may be excluded in relation to services purchased by employees, however, is limited to 20% of the amount normally charged to non-employee customers. As a result, Norbert would be able to exclude an employee discount up to 20% x $2,000 or $400 with the remaining $600 included in gross income.
