Jamahl has a 65% interest in a partnership. Jamahl sells land to the partnership for $70,000. Prior to the sale, the land had a FMV of $70,000 and an adjusted basis of $90,000 to Jamahl. Due to the sale, Jamahl will recognize

C) $0, but he will have a carryover loss of $20,000.
D) $0, and he will not have any carryover loss.


D) $0, and he will not have any carryover loss.
