Tab's realized gain is?

His recognized gain is?

The basis of the newly acquired real estate is?

Tab's realized gain = $110,000

Recognized gain = $5,000

The basis of the newly acquired real estate = $135,000

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

The stock transferred has an adjusted basis = $45,000

Fair market value of stock = $50,000

The real estate transferred has an adjusted basis = $85,000

Fair market value of real estate transferred = $190,000

Fair market value real estate acquired = $240,000

Now,

Tab's realized gain

= Fair market value - adjusted basis of real estate transferred - adjusted basis of stock transferred

= $240,000 - $85,000 - $45,000

= $110,000

Recognized gain

= Fair market value of stock - Adjusted basis of stock transferred

= $50,000 - $45,000

= $5,000

The basis of the newly acquired real estate

= Fair market value real estate acquired - Deferred gain

also,

Deferred gain = realized gain - Recognized gain

= $110,000 - $5,000

= $105,000

thus,

The basis of the newly acquired real estate

= $240,000 - $105,000

= $135,000
