    Taxable gain = $76,000 - $60,000 = $16,000

    Explanation:

    At the time of receiving the land from the partnership the market value is $60,000 aa gaianst the cost of $40,000. The partners would have valued the land at market value before giving it to Tyler. therefore the cost of land to Tyler will be $60,000 and not $40,000.
