Logan and Johnathan exchange land, and the exchange qualifies as like kind under § 1031. Because Logan's land (adjusted basis of $193,000) is worth $231,600 and Johnathan's land has a fair market value of $183,350, Johnathan also gives Logan cash of $48,250. a. Logan's recognized gain is $ . b. Assume that Johnathan's land is worth $208,440 and he gives Logan $23,160 cash. Logan's recognized gain is $ .

a. Logan's recognized gain is $38,600

b. Logan's recognized gain is $23,160

Explanation:

a. If the worth of the land for Jonathan is $183,350, then the gain recognized by Logan would be;

the lower of the realized gain between the amount realized of $231,600 - adjusted basis of $193,000 = $38,600

or the fair market worth of the received boot i.e $48,250.

Therefore, Logan's recognized gain is $38,600

b. Suppose Jonathan's land is worth, $208,440, then we can calculate Logan's recognized gain to be ;

the lower of the realized gain I.e amount realized of $231,600 - adjusted basis $193,00 = $38,600

or the fair market value of the received boot I.e $23,160 .

Therefore, Logan's recognized gain is $23,160
