Answer:

$3,400

Step-by-step explanation:

State and federal unemployment insurance benefits are taxable, and they must be included in your AGI = $1,400 + $2,000 = $3,400

Workers' compensation received for an occupational injury are not taxable. Only if you return to work while still receiving compensation will that amount be taxable.
