Answer:

$289,000

Explanation:

The computation of the adjusting basis in case of sale of the home is shown below:

= Purchase value of home + additional purchase cost + cost of swimming pool + new air conditioning system

= $250,000 + $4,000 + $30,000 + $5,000

= $289,000

In case of sale of the home, we consider all the costs which are given in the question as it related to the sale of the home
