    Tab's realized gain = $110,000

    Recognized gain = $5,000

    The basis of the newly acquired real estate = $135,000

    Explanation:

    Data provided in the question:

    The stock transferred has an adjusted basis = $45,000

    Fair market value of stock = $50,000

    The real estate transferred has an adjusted basis = $85,000

    Fair market value of real estate transferred = $190,000

    Fair market value real estate acquired = $240,000

    Now,

    Tab's realized gain

    = Fair market value - adjusted basis of real estate transferred - adjusted basis of stock transferred

    = $240,000 - $85,000 - $45,000

    = $110,000

    Recognized gain

    = Fair market value of stock - Adjusted basis of stock transferred

    = $50,000 - $45,000

    = $5,000

    The basis of the newly acquired real estate

    = Fair market value real estate acquired - Deferred gain

    also,

    Deferred gain = realized gain - Recognized gain

    = $110,000 - $5,000

    = $105,000

    thus,

    The basis of the newly acquired real estate

    = $240,000 - $105,000

    = $135,000
