For each of the following independent cases, indicate whether the circumstances call for an addition modification (A), a subtraction modification (S), or no modification (N) in computing state taxable income. Then indicate the amount of any modification. The starting point in computing State Q taxable income is the year’s Federal taxable income, before any deduction for net operating losses.

d. Refund received from last year’s Q income taxes = $3,000.
