Answer:

b. $37,500

Explanation:

a. Realized gain = (cash down payment + Purchase Note ) - Adjusted Tax basis

=(40000+ 160000)-75000

= 200000 - 75000

= 125000$

Gross profit percentage = profit /sales

=125000 / (40000 + 160000)

=125000 / 200000

=62.5%

year 1 Realised gain =   downpayment * 62.5%

= 400000 *62.5%

=25,000$

Realised gain = installment payment * 62.5%

= 20000 * 62.5%

= 12,500$

i.e 37,500$
