Answer:

Adjusted basis = $48,120

Basis of equipment is given as $80,200

Explanation:

Given data:

Yearly basis of Franco = $160,400

market value of interest = $176,440

Distributed cash = $32,080

Adjusted basis = $80,200

Adjusted basis after distribution is calculated as

Adjusted basis = yearly basis - distributed cash - equipment adjusted basis

Adjusted basis = 160,400 - 32080 - 80,200

Adjusted basis = $48,120

in the question, basis of equipment is given as $80,200
