Shontelle owns an apartment house that has an adjusted basis of $760,000 but is subject to a mortgage of $192,000. she transfers the apartment house to dave and receives from him $120,000 in cash and an office building with a fair market value of $780,000 at the time of the exchange. dave assumes the $192,000 mortgage on the apartment house. what is shontelle’s realized gain or loss?

Realized gain of Shontelle = $332000

Explanation:

given data

adjusted basis = $760,000

mortgage = $192,000

receives cash = $120,000

fair market value = $780,000

to find out

What is Shontelle realized gain or loss

solution

we find here first Realized gain that is express as

Realized gain = Amount realized - Adjusted basis     1

so here Amount realized = (receives cash  + fair market value + mortgage)

Amount realized = (120000 + 780000 + 192000)

Amount realized = 1092000

so from equation 1

Realized gain = Amount realized - Adjusted basis  

Realized gain = 1092000 - 760000

Realized gain =  $332000

so we can say that

Realized gain of Shontelle = $332000
