The correct answer is letter B: dividend income. It refers to the distribution of earnings made from companies to the share owners. The taxation of a dividend income is defined by a quality called "qualified dividend", meaning that it will be taxed at lower rates considering other sources of income. In order to be considered a "qualified dividend" it must have been paid by a US company and also the share owner must have owned it for more than 60 days during a 121-day period.
