Answer:

The correct answer is zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mindy has held the IRA for more than 5 years.

She has contributed $30,000.

The current value of the IRA is $62,000.

After retiring Mindy takes a distribution of $38,000.

The taxable amount is zero. This is because taxpayers can make withdrawals from Roth IRA if they become disabled.

So, the correct answer is zero.
