    B) $20,000

    Explanation:

    Antonio's realized gain = payment received - land basis = $48,000 - $28,000 = $20,000

    When a city government exercises the right of eminent domain it will take possession of private property. The Fifth Amendment authorizes this practice only if the owner is given a just compensation for their loss.
