Expert Solution

Calculation of Swindler's basis in each distributed asset

First of all, we have to find percentage of share of Swindler in SLD Partnership

% of share of Swindler = 69,000/81,000*100 = 85.19%

Calculation of Swindler's Basis in each distributed asset

Asset Swindler's Share
Cash $5,000*.8519 = $4,259.5
Inventory $16,000*.8519 = $13,630.4
Capital asset 1 $20,000*.8519 = $17,038
Capital asset 2 $40,000*.8519 = $34,072
  69,0000 (approx)

Calculation of Swindler's Basis in each distributed asset on basis of FMV

Asset Swindler's Share
Cash $5,000*.8519 = $4,259.5
Inventory $18,000*.8519 = $15,334.2
Capital asset 1 $30,000*.8519 = $25,557
Capital asset 2 $35,000*.8519 = $29,816.5
  = $74,967.2
