Answer :
Answer: Option (a) is correct.
Explanation:
For Roth IRA which was opened 10 years ago,
Monica contributed = $15,000
Current value of IRA = $37,500
Distribution = $25,000
There will no extra charged on withdrawal because its been more than 5 years.
If she was more than 59.5 years old then the entire withdrawal become tax free.
∴ The taxable distribution = Distribution - Monica contribution
= 25000 - 15000
= $10000
