Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                     FMV        Adjusted Basis

Inventory   $19,900         $37,000

Building      82,500           60,500

Land           82,750           50,250

Total        $185,150        $147,750

Gain = FMV minus Adjusted Basis

= $185,150 - $147,750

= $37,400

b) Section 351(a) of the IRS Code "provides that no gain or loss shall be recognized if Ivan transfers property to his corporation solely in exchange for stock in the corporation and immediately after the exchange, Ivan is in control (as defined in § 368(c)) of the corporation."  Therefore, Ivan will not recognize any loss on the transfer.

c) Section 1244 of the IRS Code "allows Ivan as a shareholder of a small corporation to deduct losses on the disposal of his shares to be treated as ordinary loss and not capital loss."  This can treatment is allowed on disposal or if the shares become worthless.
