Answer

Brief Explanations:

For question 25, form 1099 is used by independent contractors to report income. W - 4 is for employees to indicate tax - withholding information, W - 2 is an employer - issued form for employees' annual wage and tax statement, and I - 9 is for employment eligibility verification. For question 26, gross earnings are the total pay before any deductions are made. Take - home pay after deductions is net pay, tax refunds are not related to the definition of gross earnings, and overtime pay is just a part of gross earnings in some cases.

Answer:

  1. a) 1099
  2. d) Total pay before deductions
