    Answer: A. No

    B. Wes $10million, Sam $4million

    Explanation:

    For individuals and households, gross income is the total sum of all salaries, wages, interest payments, profits, rents, and other forms of earnings, before any taxes or deduction is made. The amount Wes and Sam receive does not have the same gross income, this is because Wes receives $10million and Sam receives $4million
