    Recognized gain (loss) on the exchange = $0

    Basis in the land = $75,000

    Explanation:

    Apartment Fair market value = $80,000

    Land's value = $60,000

    Cash received = $20,000

    So Gain / (Loss) = $80,000 - ($60,000+$20,000) = $0

    Basis in Land = $95,000-$20,000 = $75,000
