    c. $3,150

    Explanation:

    The computation of the gross income is shown below:

    = Interest on savings accounts + Interest on a State bond + Interest portion of proceeds of a 5% bank certificate of deposit + Dividends on USG common stock

    = $2,000 + $600 + $250 + $300

    = $3,150

    We do not consider the school bonds as it would not be included in the gross income. So, we ignored it
