    a. None b. $44, 000 c. $16,000

    Explanation:

    a. Jerry and Frank didn't have any loss or gain because none of them met the basic requirements (as outlined in the Sec. 351).

    b. Due to the dis-proportionality of the exchange, Jerry's basis in the Texas stock will be the addition of his 75 shares and 25 shares. Therefore, $28,000 + $16,000 = $44, 000.

    c. Frank's basis is calculated as $32,000 x 25/50 = 0.5 * $32,000 = $16,000.
