Answer:

She will include $21,368 in her gross income

Explanation:

Under the tax benefit rule, any amount claimed as a deduction in prior years and recovered in subsequent periods must be recognized as income in the year in which such amount is recovered. So Leilei must record the subsequent recovery of bad debts $21,368 as gross income.
