    Partnership: The total value of property received

    b. As per section 721, There is no gain or loss is recognized by partnrhsip or other partners on formation of the entity.

    c. Liz: Substituted basis = $80,000 + $75,000 = $155,000

    John: Substituted basis = $20,000 i. e. in equipment

    d. Partnership LZ : Carry over basis = $80,000 + $75,000 + $20,000 = $175,000
