Problem - At the end of the current year, Kari will receive a one-third capital interest only in exchange for services rendered. Kari's interest will not be subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture and the costs for the type of services she provided are typically not capitalized by the partnership. For the current year, the income and expenses from operations are equal. Consequently, the only tax consequences for the year are those relating to the admission of Kari to the partnership. (Leave no answer blank. Enter zero if applicable. Do not round intermediate calculations.)

Required -

a. Compute and characterize any gain or loss Kari may have to recognize as a result of her admission to the partnership.

b. Compute Kari's basis in her partnership interest.
