Answer:

Walter's recognized gain is $2,000

Explanation:

Walter's gain/loss = cash distribution - basis in the partnership = $18,000 - $16,000 = $2,000

A partner (Walter) does not have to recognize income on a non-liquidating partnership distribution of property other than money. This land distribution must be treated as a sale and recorded at fair market value.
