Respuesta :

Heather realizes a $25,000 loss, $5,000 gain recognized by P/S and $30,000 realized gain by P/S

What are the transaction summary?

As a sale that equals a related transaction, this is because Heather owns more than 50% of P/S whereas she can't recognize a loss if she sells to herself and she must recognize a gain as ordinary income.

We need to ignore 95,000 FMV because she is selling land in a related transaction rather than contributing it to P/S.

Hence, Heather realizes a $25,000 loss (75,000-50,000)  which is deferred because cannot recognize a loss only if sells it later and $5,000 gain recognized by P/S, $30,000 realized gain by P/S (Heather can offset her $25,000 deferred loss).
