Answer:

c. Ann has a bias of $200,000 in her 100 shares in Brown Corporation.

Explanation:

As Ann traded an asset worth 200,000 for 100 shares her basis for the shares will be 200,000

Also, it will recognize a 160,000 capital gain because it traded the land which basis is 40,000 for 200,000 it has realized the capital gain thus, it is taxable now.

The land will enter Brown Corporation as 200,000 not 160,000.
