Kay inherits stock which had a basis to the decedent of $42,000 and a fair market value of $37,000 on August 4, 2017, the date of the decedents death. The executor distributes the stock to Kay on Nov 12, 2017, at which time the fair market value is $46,000. The executor does not elect the alternate valuation date. Kay sells the stock on November 30, 2017, for $35,700. What is her recognized gain or loss? (I believe the answer is C because you would do: 37,000-35,700 and this would give you a 1,300 loss.. PLEASE EXPLAIN IN WORDS!)
