    Answer: $12,000

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Jessica is a 25% partner in the JRL Partnership

    Cash received = $40,000

    Jessica's partnership interest (basis) = $28,000

    JRL has no hot assets or liabilities

    Capital Gain on Distribution = Total Amount Received - Basis in Firm + Liability in Partnership

    = $40,000 - $28,000 + $0

    = $12,000

    Therefore, $12,000 is the amount and character of Jessica's gain from the distribution.
