Essay

The Dispensary is a pharmacy that is part of a § 501(c)(3) hospital. Its primary mission is to dispense medicines for hospital patients. In addition, the pharmacy dispenses medicines to former hospital patients for a period of up to 30 days after discharge from the hospital. It does this for the dual purpose of convenience to the former patients (i.e., the closest pharmacy is six miles away) and to ensure that the former patients receive the medicines that have been prescribed for them.
The Dispensary carries out the policy of the hospital board that no more than 25% of its gross revenues come from former-patient medicine sales. If necessary, in December of each year, sales to former patients are curtailed to ensure compliance with this policy. Sales revenue from each of the two sources is as follows for the tax year. $\begin{array} { l } \text {Medicine dispensed to hospital patients }&\$900,000\\ \text {Medicine sales to former patients }&100,000\\\end{array}$
Calculate the amount of The Dispensary's unrelated business income.
