1. Adam works during the summer as a fire watcher for the Oregon forest service. As such he spends three weeks in the woods in a forest service watchtower and then gets a week off. Because of the remoteness of the location, groceries are flown in by helicopter to Adam each week. Does Adam have any taxable income from this arrangement? Explain.

2. Don is the production manager for Corporate Manufacturing Facilities (CMF). CMF works three production shifts per day. Because Don is so integral to CMF's oper- ations, the company requires him to live in housing that CMF owns so he can be avail- able for any emergencies that arise throughout the day. The housing is located four blocks from the CMF plant. Is Don taxed on the value of the housing? Explain.
