Answer:

Loss of $2,000

Explanation:

In this scenario, we have the following information:

• The adjusted cost basis: $8,000 (the amount paid by the donor)

• The fair market value: $5,000  

• The sold amount: $6,000

Parrot’s basis in the land is $8,000, as same basis the donor had.  

So when he sells it, he must report loss of $2,000 on the sale.

What is the difference between<br> a traditional economy and<br> a market economy?
Triss [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

A traditional economy is one which doesn't operate under a profit motive.

Instead, it emphasizes the trading and bartering of products and services that enable participants to subsist in a specific region, community and/or culture. Largely, traditional economies are a way of life in underdeveloped countries that rely more on old-fashioned economic models like farming or hunting than on newer-age modes like industry and technology.

Capitalist

Historically, these societies leverage market forces, such as supply and demand, with a strong motivation to earn a profit, to shape their economic models.
