Answer:

b. $2,000

Explanation:

Marvin liability immediately before the cancellation=$43,000

Marvin FMV of assets immediately before the cancellation=$38,000

Difference between two liability and assets=43,000-38,000

                                                                        =$5,000

Form 1099-C canceled credit debit=$7,000

Amount of canceled debt that marvin will report=7,000-5,000

                                                                                =$2,000

So the answer shall be b. $2,000
