Answer 1

If Jordan (16) has the following income for 2021: waitress wages, $795; tips, $140; bank interest, $85; and babysitting, $390. Her unearned income for the year is: a. $225

What is Unearned income?

Unearned income is defined as money received without working or participating actively. Jordan's unearned income in this instance would be her earnings from jobs other than waitressing and babysitting.

We are going to add up the income from sources other than waitress wages and babysitting:

$140 (tips) + $85 (bank interest)

= $225

Therefore the correct option is A.
