    a. $24,000

    b. $9,000

    Explanation:

    a. The amount of income or loss from the partnership is limited to the share of the loss rather than its partnership interest

    In the given case, the partnership interest is $45,000 and the share of his loss is $24,000

    So, $24,000 is reported in his individual income tax return

    b. The computation of the Wilson's basis in his partnership interest is shown below:

    = Basis in his partnership interest - share of the loss - cash distribution received from the partnership

    = $45,000 - $24,000 - $12,000

    = $9,000
