Answer:

Investment Income= $75,000

Explanation:

Percentage of Stock Owned: 30%

Reported Income for 2018: $250,000

Investment Income: $250,000 x 30% = $75,000

Dividend Paid: $80,000 x 30% = $24,000

Of the $75,000 total income, $24,000 were paid as dividends and the rest remain as Dividend Receivable.
