    Explanation:

    a. What amount of loss does Celeste recognize in the exchange

    Since this is a Type A merger, no loss is required to be recognized.

    Basis in the Marketing stock is the excess of Celeste's tax basis in the Supply Chain stock over the fair market value of stock in Marketing. This can be calculated as follows:
