A transfers land to Newco in exchange for 100% of Newco's stock. The land has a basis of $50, FMV of
$100 and is subject to a mortgage of $40.
A) What are the consequences to each of the parties?
B) Suppose in that the mortgage was placed on the property immediately before the transfer to Newco. A

land. Would this change your answer
C) Suppose instead that the mortgage was for $60. Suppose further that this mortgage was incurred on the
purchase of the property many years ago. Would this change your answer?
D) Same as (c) except that A also transfers accounts payable of $10. A is a cash basis taxpayer. How would
