Answer:

Explanation:

Amount realized on sales                                                     $450,000            

Cost                                                  $1,000,000    

Accumulated depreciation              $814,000

                                                                                                $186,000

Realized gain                                                                          $264,000

Ordinary income = excess of  $814,000 accelerated

Over $625,000 straight-line depreciation      $189,000

Section 1231 gain                                                $75,000

Recognized gain                                                 $264,000

(b)

Ordinary income = excess of $814,000 accelerated

Over $625,000 straight-line depreciation                 $189,000

20% additional recapture 20% * $75,000                  $15,000

Section 1231 gain                                                           $60,000

Recognized gain                                                            $264,000
