Heading: Mayla's gross income

Text: David's second assignment of error with regard to the child support award is the District Court's calculation of Mayla's gross income. His argument on appeal is that the District Court undervalued Mayla's income and, therefore, caused him to have to pay a greater amount in child support. David contends that Mayla's gross income is $38,811. This includes her wages of $33,912 and $4,899 in annual employer provided medical benefits. The District Court, on the other hand, concluded that Mayla's gross income totals $39,912, which includes her wages of $33,912 and $6,000 of other taxable income. The District Court calculated Mayla's gross income as $1,101 more than David's own calculation of her income. The District Court's inclusion of $6,000 as other taxable income more than sufficiently provides for such things as Mayla's annual employer provided medical benefits. We therefore affirm the District Court's calculation of Mayla's gross income.
