Answer:
Therefore, The amount and character of Randolph's gain or loss on the distribution is $11,000.
Explanation:
Randolph recognized capital gain or loss on distribution
= $37,000 - $26,000
= $11,000
This is a loss since he received only cash in the distribution and the amount is less than his basis in his partnership interest.
Therefore, The amount and character of Randolph's gain or loss on the distribution is $11,000.
