(a)Income from intangible personal property, including annuities, dividends, interest, and gains from the disposition of intangible personal property, shall constitute income derived from sources within the taxpayer's source State only to the extent that such income is from property employed in a business, trade, profession, or occupation carried on in his source State.

(b)Compensation paid by the United States for service in the Armed Forces of the United States, performed by an individual during an induction period, shall not constitute income derived from sources within his source State.

(2)under a life insurance contract payable by reason of death,
