Doobie · Answer 1

a. The computation of the adjusted basis for the land and building is shown below:

For land = $100,000

For building = $80,000

b. Gerald's basis for gain:

Gerald's adjusted basis for the land is $100,000

Gerald's adjusted basis for the building is $80,000

Gerald's basis for loss:

Gerald's adjusted basis for the land is $87,000 (fair value)

Gerald's adjusted basis for the building is $65,000 (fair value)

Since all the values are given in the question we simply put them in the correct items
