Janice transfers land and a building with a $180,000 adjusted basis and a $200,000 FMV to Optimum Corporation in exchange for 100% of its stock in a transaction qualifying under Sec. 351. Shortly before the transfer, Janice obtains a $140,000 mortgage on the property and uses the funds to pay off personal debts. The corporation then assumes the $140,000 mortgage and issues stock worth $60,000. The mortgage assumption lacks business purpose and is intended to place cash in Janice's hands.
a.   What is the gain realized by Janice?
b.   What is the gain recognized by Janice?
c.   What is the basis of the stock received by Janice?
