Answer: $0 equipment, $20,000 land, $30,000 inventory, $90,000 partnership interest.

Explanation: The asset basis in the partnership between Xena and Xavier is the same same their basis. In the scenario above, Xena's basis is the same as Xena's partnership basis in asset.

Xena's asset basis include;

Cash = $20,000

Land basis = $40,000

Inventory basis = $30,000

Equipment basis = $0

Therefore Xena's basis in the partnership interest:

$ (20,000 + 40,000 + 30,000 + 0) = $90,000
