    Gerald's outside basis immediately after his contribution is $9000.

    Explanation:

    A Partner's outside basis consists of the basis of the contributed property less any debt relief the property received plus the portion of debt the partner assumes based upon the Partner's interest in the partnership.

    In this case, the nonrecourse mortagage is allocated to partners strictly according to their profit sharing ratios because the mortagage does not exceed the basis in the contributed profit, i. e,

    [$15,000 - ($9,000 + ($9,000 X 33%)).

    Approximately it is $ 9,000

    Therefore, Gerald's outside basis immediately after his contribution is $9000.
