Answer: $546

Explanation:

The amount realized by Roberta in the exchange will be gotten through the addition of the fair value of the stock that was acquired to the liability that's assumed by the corporation. This will be:

Fair value of stock acquired = $356

Add: Liability assumed by corporation = $190

Amount realised = $356 + $190 = $546
