Sue and Andrew form SA general partnership. Each person receives an equal interest in the newly created partnership. Sue contributes $18,000 of cash and land with an FMV of $63,000. Her basis in the land is $28,000. Andrew contributes equipment with an FMV of $20,000 and a building with an FMV of $41,000. His basis in the equipment is $16,000, and his basis in the building is $28,000. How much gain must the SA general partnership recognize on the transfer of these assets from Sue and Andrew

Respuesta :

Answer:

$0

Explanation:

Given that

Sue contributed amount = $18,000

FMV of land = $63,000

Basis in land = $28,000

Andrew contributed amount = $20,000

FMV of Building = $41,000

Basis in equipment = $16,000

Basis in building = $28,000

Based on the above information, the gain that would be recognized is $0 as Partnerships recognize no gain on receiving contributed valued property. At the disposal of the asset, the constructed-in benefit or constructed-in loss will be revealed. For this, the partnership basis property i.e being acquired should be based on a carryover basis.
