Answer:

c. $25,000

Explanation:

The computation of gain (loss) is shown below:-

Land value                                $50,000

Less: Bob adjusted basis         $30,000

Built in gain allocated to Bob $20,000

Sales consideration                   $60,000

Less: Land value                         $50,000

Gain to be allocated between

two members                              $10,000

Total gain allocated to Bob

($20,000 + $10,000 × 50%)       $25,000
