Kyle's AB in the asset he contributed was $16,000 and the FMV of the asset on the date of contribution was $60,000. What is Kyle's outside basis immediately after the contribution

Respuesta :

Answer:

$1,000

Explanation:

Calculation for Kyle's outside basis immediately after the contribution

Since the Liability of the amount of $22,500 was distributed among the three partners which makes each of one of them to have a liability of

the amount of $7,500 calculated as: ($22,500/3 partners ), that means that Kyle will have a debt relief of the amount of $15,000 calculated as (7,500 * 2 partners)

Hence,

Kyle's outside basis= Asset contributed - Debt relief amount

Kyle's outside basis=16,000 -15,000

Kyle's Outside basis= $1,000

Therefore Kyle's outside basis immediately after the contribution will be $1,000
