    Neither Kristen nor Karen is required to include the cost of parking in gross income.

    Explanation:

    As a qualified transportation fringe, both Kristen and Karen's benefit can be excluded from gross income. Karen's reimbursement is less than the maximum exclusion amount allowed. Likewise, the value of Karen's free parking is less than the maximum exclusion amount allowed.
