For most people, the standard of living that they will enjoy over their lifetimes depends largely on the total income that they earn. Income that you earn when someone pays you in the form of hourly wages, regular salaries or tips, or from running a business is known as earned income. Earned income accounts for the majority of total income that people receive.Family income depends on both the number of family members who work and the amount of money that each is paid. Other sources of income are called unearned income. These may include money we make from collecting rents on property we own, income we receive in the form of interest and dividends from investments or non-salary payments received from the government We begin in this module with earned income since it accounts for almost all the income of young adults who have not yet accumulated the savings necessary to generate a lot of unearned income.There are huge differences in the amount of money people are paid for their work in the United States.

Other high earners include movie and TV stars, top corporate executives, and surgeons.

On January 1, 2021, Labtech Circuits borrowed $220,000 from First Bank by issuing a three-year, 9% note, payable on December 31, 2023. Labtech wanted to hedge the risk that general interest rates will decline, causing the fair value of its debt to increase. Therefore, Labtech entered into a three-year interest rate swap agreement on January 1, 2021, and designated the swap as a fair value hedge. The agreement called for the company to receive payment based on an 9% fixed interest rate on a notional amount of $220,000 and to pay interest based on a floating interest rate tied to LIBOR. The contract called for cash settlement of the net interest amount on December 31 of each year. Floating (LIBOR) settlement rates were 9% at inception and 10%, 8%, and 8% at the end of 2021, 2022, and 2023, respectively. The fair values of the swap are quotes obtained from a derivatives dealer.
