The answer is - $6,000.00
Explanation:
Contributions to a nonqualified annuity represent cost-base dollars. When the contributions are paid out, cost base represents a return of capital and is not subject to tax. The growth in an annuity is taxdeferred
and is taxable upon receipt. In this case, of the total distribution of $16,000, the return of contributions was $10,000, leaving $6,000 taxable as ordinary income.
