Under the terms of the agreement, Tiffany will receive the $275,500 cash in exchange for her 50 percent interest in ROF. Tiffany's tax basis in her ROF stock is $56,500. Carlos will receive the building and land in exchange for his 50 percent interest in ROF. His tax basis in the ROF stock is $133,500.

(Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign.)
