Explanation:

a. What is Laurel’s initial tax basis in her LLC interest?

This will be the addition of the $250,000 basis for the equipment, accounts payable of $15,000 and also the $15,000 (15% × $100,000). This will be:

= $250,000 + $15,000 + $15,000

= $280,000

b. True.

Laurel’s holding period in the partnership interest begins the day the LLC interest is acquired. This is due to the fact that the asset contributed isn't a section 1232 asset. The reason for this is due to the fact that the asset was used for a year or less.

c. Sand Creek’s initial basis in the contributed property is $250,000.

d. Ten months.

Sand Creek’s holding period in the contributed property will be 10 months.
