    b.$10,000 and $40,000.

    Explanation:

    Under the ordering rules for distributions, cash is distributed first, then followed by unrealized receivables and inventory; other assets are distributed last.

    For Petra, the inventory is distributed first and takes a carryover basis of $40,000.

    This reduces Petra's basis to $10,000. The land is distributed next and takes the $10,000 remaining basis

    $50,000 (partnership interest) - $40,000 (inventory) = $10,000 (land distribution)
