Answer:

Darla's amount realized on the sale is $800

Adjusted basis in the assets sold is $300

Producing a realized gain on the sale of $500

Explanation:

Amount realized = cash received + FMV of other property + buyer’s assumption of seller’s liabilities – seller’s expenses

Amount realized = 600 + 200 + 0 -0

= $800

Adjusted basis = initial basis – cost recovery deductions

Adjusted basis = 2500-2200 = $300

Gain or loss realized = amount realized – adjusted basis = 800-300

= $500

Therefore Darla's amount realized on the sale is $800 and the adjusted basis in the assets sold is $300, producing a realized gain on the sale of $500
