    b. If the employer accepts Turner's counteroffer, Turner will recognize as gross income $55,000 per month [ ($480,000 + $180,000) / 12].

    Explanation:

    Given that

    Turner annual salary = $600,000

    Counteroffer to received a monthly salary = $40,000 or $480,000 annually

    And, $180,000 bonus in 5 years at the age of 65

    So the benefit he will be getting would be after accepting the counter offer is

    = ($480,000 + $180,000) : 12 months

    = $660,000 : 12 months

    = $55,000
