Respuesta :

Answer:

Calvin would have a long-term capital gain of $1000.

Explanation:

Calvin's contributions towards partnership is as below

Beg                                           $43,000

2010 income                            $22,000

2011 income                             $25,000

2010 income                            $12,000

Total  contribution                   $102,000

Total amount Calvin realized by selling his partnership interest = $103,000.

Therefore, Calvin would have a long-term capital gain of $1000 (amount Calvin realized - Calvin's contributions  = $103,000 - $102,000).
