Q

Gain when Boot Received: Boot/loot + FMV non-like-kind property

A

**If the exchange includes both debt assumed and debt relief, the debt is netted

e.g.
gave
real estate basis 25k
fmv 40k

received
real estate fmv 35k
cash 5k

FMV           35k
BOOT           5k
----------------------------
got                 40k 
NBV                 (25k)
------------------------------
gain                15k 
taxed             (5k) - boot 
----------------------------------
deferred          10 k 

…………………………………
Basis = FMV of received property - deferred gain + deferred loss

= 35k -10k + 0
= 25k

Q

Losses

like-kind exchange

A

not deductible/ adjust basis of new property

1) like-kind exchange - NO boot

e.g RE -> RE
cost  $35k 
Dep  (18k)
----------------------
NBV        17k 
GOT          20k
-------------------------
realized gain 3k 

no boot so ,
recognized gain = 0

basis
= fmv received - deferred gain + deferred loss
= 20 - 3 + 0
= 17k

……………………………………………………….
2) like-kind exchange : realized loss

e.g.
cost: 35k
depriciation: (12k)
——————————-
NBV 23k
GOT (20k)
———————————
realized loss -3k

recognized gain = 0

basis = fmv got - deferred gain + deffered loss
= 20k - 0 +3k
= 23k
…………………………………………..

3) like-kind exchange : boot received
greater than gain realized

e.g. 
Cost    35k 
Depr.     (18k) 
-----------------------
NBV          17k 
GOT 
RE            (16.5k) 
Cash        (3.5k) 
---------------------------
Gain           3k 

realized gain = 3k
Recognize gain = 3k ( lesser of realized gain or boot received)

deferred gain/loss = 0

Basis = FMV of RE - Deferred gain + Deferred loss
= 16.5 - 0 + 0 = 16.5k

………………………………………
4) like - kind -exchange :boot received
less than gain received

Cost   35k 
Depr.   (18k)
-------------
NBV      17k 
GOT
RE          (17.5) 
cash      (2.5)
----------------------
gain        3k 

gain realized = 3k

recognized gain = 2.5k ( lesser of realized and boot)

deffered gain = 500 (3k-2.5k)

Basis of new property = FMV of RE - DG + DL
= 17.5 - 500 + 0
= 17k

…………………………………………..
5) Like-kind exchange : realized gain, boot paid

Cost   35k 
depr.    (18k)
------------------------
NBV     17k 
Cash given  2k 
----------------------------
Gave  19k 
GOT 
RE        ( 22k )
Cash        0
-----------------------------
Gain   3k 

Realized gain = 3k

Recognized gain = 0

Gain deferred = 3k

Basis = FMV - DG + DL
= 22k - 3k + 0
= 19k

………………………………………………
6) like kinds exchange : realized gain, debt assumed and debt relief (net)

cost   35k 
Depr   (18k)
-------------------
NBV    17k 
Debt relief (5k) 
---------------------------
Gave                12k
GOT 
RE                  (18k) 
Debt assumed       3k 
----------------------------------
Gain                            3k

net debt is 2k relief
( take lesser of gain or debt relief)

realized gain = 3k

recognized gain = 2k ( take lesser of gain or debt relief)

deferred gain = 1k

basis = FMV - dg +dl
= 18k - 1k +0
= 17k

Q

WRaP loss

W

A

W : wash sale loss

  • 30 days before or after
  • when stock is sold for a loss and is repurchased within 30 days before or after the sale date

basis = purchase price + disallowed loss

date of acquisition = original date

gains are taxable

e.g
sold April `1
100 stock cost 22k for price 21k
1k loss

bought same stock april 25 for 21500

then
1k loss disallowed
new basis = new cost + disallowed loss
= 21.5 +1 = 22.5k
