    See the explanation below:

    Explanation:

    a. How is the land recorded for § 704 (b) book capital account purposes? For § 704

    Debit cash with $170,250

    Debit land with $340,500

    Credit Nova's Capital account with $510,750

    b. What is Padgett's tax basis in the land?

    Padgett's tax basis in the land is $85,125 that is carried over.

    c. If Padgett sells the land several years later for $510,750, how much tax gain will Nova and Oscar report?

    Built in gain = $340,500 - $85,125 = $255,375

    Gain from sale = $510,750 - $340,500 = $170,250

    Share of gain from sale = $170,250 * 50% = $85,125

    Gain to report by Nova = Built in gain + Share of gain from sale = $255,375 + $85,125 = $340,500

    Gain to report by Oscar = Share of gain from sale = $170,250 * 50% = $85,125
