    Adjusted Basis = $571,300

    Explanation:

    Given.

    Amount Procured = $750,000

    Capital Improvement = $50,000

    Depreciation = $128,700

    Adjusted basis is the net cost of an asset after adjusting for various tax-related items.

    In other words, it is the original cost or other basis of property, reduced by depreciation deductions and increased by capital expenditures.

    Calculating Jocasta's adjusted basis in the building.

    = Amount Procured - Depreciation - Capital Improvement

    = $750,000 - $128,700 - $50,000

    = $571,300
