Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Fair market value = 700,000

Cash received = 100,000

Adjusted basis = 520,000

Recognized gain:

= Value received - Adjusted basis

= [Fair market value + Cash received] -  Adjusted basis

= [700,000 + 100,000] - 520,000

= $280,000 Gain

The basis of investment land is equal to the fair market value of the investment land.

Basis investment land = $700,000
