    Republic LLC's recognized gain on the exchange is $11,500

    Explanation:

    In order to calculate Republic LLC's recognized gain or loss on the exchange we would have to calculate first the Realized gain and then compare it with the amount received by cash and value with less amount would be the recognized gain or loss on the exchange.

    Therefore, Realized gain=Fair Market value of property received + Cash received - Adjusted basis of the property transferred

    Realized gain=$39,750+$11,500-$37,500

    Realized gain=$13,759

    The cash in the transaction was $11,500.

    Therefore, Republic LLC's recognized gain on the exchange is $11,500
