    Total taxable amount will be equal to $7000

    So option (d) will be correct answer

    Explanation:

    According to IRS benefit which is received under the disability which shall be fully taxable only if

    Employee pays premium on such policy entirely with pre tax dollars

    Here in the given question premium amount paid by employee herself and with the assumption of paying such premium with pre tax dollars hence it is treated as taxable fully i. e 6500$

    So 500$ sick pay under welfare fund is treated as earned income so fully taxable.

    Therefore total taxable amount will be equal to $6500 + $500 = $7000

    So option (d) will be correct answer
