olchik [2.2K]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the amount and character of the gain recorded is shown below:

1. Recognized gain would be

= Sales - the cost of the property - recovery cost

= $1,200,000 - $1,000,000 - $411,750

= $611,750

2. Now as per the section 1245 the potential recapture is $411,750

3. Now extra section 291 ordinary income in the case when it is a corporation

= $411,750 ×20%

= $82,350

4. And finally $82,350 would be considered as an ordinary income under section 291 while the remaining balance i.e.

= $611,750 - $82,350

= $529,400

This amount would be considered as a gain under section 1231
