Explanation / Answer

Basis                           FMV

Cash                            $30,000                       $30,000

Inventory                    $30,000                       $40,000

Land A                        $35,000                       $20,000

                              $95,000                       $90,000

X had a basis in her partnership interest of $75,000, so the land%u2019s basis was reduced $20,000 and had only a $15,000 basis in X%u2019s hands. The remaining YZ partnership (which did have a Code Sec. 754 election in effect) had the following remaining assets:

Basis                           FMV

Cash                            $40,000                       $40,000
