    Mary's gross income should include her $73,000 salary, the $1,200 she earned in corporate bond interest and the $23,000 car that she won on a game show (game show prizes are filed as miscellaneous income).

    Explanation:

    Employer provided disability insurance is not included in the gross income of the employee. The $600 can be deducted as a business expense by the employer.

    Worker compensation is a type of insurance that employers pay to insure employees from job related illnesses or accidents. So the $5,000 in worker compensation are also business expenses and are not part of the gross income of the employee.
