Each of the partners, A, B and C, contributed $30,000 of cash to the partnership. Assume the partners agree that A will receive Land #1 in complete liquidation of his interest in the partnership. What is the amount of gain, loss, income to be recognized by A, B & C as the result of this transaction? What is As basis in Land#1 and what is the partnerships basis in the other assets?
