Paul will contribute Property #1 with an FMV of $380,000 and an AB of $240,000. At the time of the contribution, Property #1 was encumbered by a $180,000 nonrecourse liability.

Assume that Paul's net liability relief is deemed to be $120,000 ($180,000 752(b) relief minus $60,000 752(a) share) and that Paul receives a $50,000 check from the PRS partnership upon the formation of the partnership.
What is (i) the amount of gain Paul must recognize as a result of the transfer, (ii) the partnership's the inside basis in Property #1, (iii) Paul's capital account balance, and (iv) Paul's outside basis in his partnership interest, under the following independent assumptions:
