Avocado Corp wants to acquire Tomato Corp because their businesses are complementary and Tomato has unused business credits of $63,000. Avocado is a manufacturer with basis in its assets of $2.4 million (FMV $3.1 million) and liabilities of $600,000. Tomato is a distributor of a variety of products including those of Avocados. Tomatos basis in its assets is $2 million (FMV $1.5 million) and it has liabilities of $400,000. Avocado is willing to acquire only $1 million of Tomatos assets and all its liabilities for stock and $100,000 cash. Tomato will distribute its remaining assets, cash, and Avocado stock to its shareholders in exchange for their stock, and then liquidate.
