Kase, an individual, purchased some property in Potomac, Maryland, for $217,000 approximately 10 years ago. Kase is approached by a real estate agent representing a client who would like to exchange a parcel of land in North Carolina for Kase’s Maryland property. Kase agrees to the exchange.

What is Kase’s realized gain or loss, recognized gain or loss, and basis in the North Carolina property in each of the following alternative scenarios? (Loss amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Leave no answer blank. Enter zero if applicable.)

a. The transaction qualifies as a like-kind exchange and the fair market value of each property is $907,500.

b. The transaction qualifies as a like-kind exchange and the fair market value of each property is $199,000.

Answer:

A. Realized gain(907500-217000)= 609,500

Recognized gain= 0

Adjustment basis in new property=217,000.

B. Realised loss ( 199000 - 217000) = 18,000

Recognized loss= 0

Adjusted basis in new property= 217000

Step-by-step explanation:

Realized gain(907500-217000)= 609,500

Recognized gain= 0

Adjustment basis in new property=217,000.

Here , we find that Kase has realised gain of $ 690,500 but recognised gain of $ 0 . It is so because Kase did not receive any boot and the transaction is a like-kind exchange. Therefore, the adjusted basis in new property = $ 217,000 ( as no gain is recognised ).

Realised loss ( 199000 - 217000 )= 18,000

Recognized loss= 0

Adjusted basis in new property= 217000

The absolute value function, f(x) = |x + 2|, is shown.

Georgia [21]

ANSWER

all real numbers

EXPLANATION

The given absolute value function is

$f(x) = |x + 2|$

This function is obtained by shifting the graph of

$y = |x|$

to the left by 2 units.

Since the domain of the parent function is all real numbers, the domain of the transformed function is also all real numbers because the shifting the parent function horizontally or vertically does not affect the domain.
