The couple received salary income of $102,100 and qualified business income of $10,000 from an investment in a partnership, and they sold their home this year. They initially purchased the home three years ago for $242,000 and they sold it for $355,000. The gain on the sale qualified for the exclusion from the sale of a principal residence.
