Plase solve and include explanation and calculations: This project covers general partnership basis issues including computation of partners' adjusted basis, determination of current$-$year tax position, preparation of tax forms, and creation of a memo to the partners with an analysis of their current$-$year tax issues and changes to basis.

In the current year, Mary, Andrew, and Paul formed Venezia General Partnership. Mary contributed $$55,000$ cash, Andrew contributed $$55,000,$ and Paul contributed land with a cash basis of $$70,000$ and a fair market value of $$180,000.$ The partnership assumed a $$70,000$ mortgage on the land; no partner is personally liable for the mortgage. At the end of the current year, Venezia made a $$7,000$ payment on the mortgage. Mary, Andrew, and Paul will split all profits and losses equally.

Current$-$year operations had the following results:

Sales revenue: $$260,000$

Cost of goods sold: $$205,000$

Operating expenses: $$35,000$

Long$-$term capital gains: $$1,200$

Section $1231$ Gains: $$450$

Charitable contributions: $$350$

Municipal bond interest: $$150$
