As of the end of the current tax year, Valerie Flemings tax basis in her partnership interest was $45,000. At that time, she received a $60,000 non-liquidating cash distribution. Assume that all other partners also received proportionate cash distributions, so that the provisions of 751(b) do not apply to the distribution. Immediately following the distribution, the partnership had the following assets:

	Basis	FMV
Cash	$10,000	$10,000
Accounts Receivable	$0	$45,000
Depreciable Equipment	$50,000	$80,000
Land (1231 Asset)	$25,000	$145,000
Building	$65,000	$105,000
Totals	$140,000	$385,000

Assume that the partnership originally purchased the depreciable equipment for $100,000. The original purchase price of the building was $80,000. The equipment is being depreciated using accelerated depreciation, while the straight-line method is used for the building. The partnership had a 754 election in effect at the date of the distribution.
