Under the terms of the agreement, Tiffany will receive the $347,250 cash in exchange for her 50 percent interest in ROF.
Tiffany's tax basis in her ROF stock is $59,250. Carlos will receive the building and land in exchange for his 50 percent

liquidation. (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign.)
Assume Tiffany owns 40 percent of the ROF stock and Carlos owns 60 percent. Tiffany will receive $277,800 in the liquidation and
Carlos will receive the land and building plus $69,450.
