The correct answer is B

Explanation:

The Schedule B (which is Form 1040), if any of the following conditions are applied:

1. Earned or have taxable interest of $1,500 or the ordinary dividends.

2. Received or collected the interest from the seller who financed mortgaged and the buyer have kept the property as the personal residence.

3. Received or have an accrued interest from bond.

So, In this situation, Robin is the one who earned $1,550 in the corporate bond interest. Therefore, the Robin is required to file the Schedule B as he has earned more than $1,500.
