    Paloma gains $80,000

    Explanation:

    From the question,

    Property received:

    Land = 150,000

    Cash = 10,000

    Debt assumed by Pamela = 40,000

    Total = 200,000

    From the Warehouse she give out

    = 120,000

    Therefore 200,000 - 120, 000 = 80,000.

    Hence $80,000 is the gain she realised.
