    (a) $169,000 (b) The separated items are $8,000, $5000 and $3000 with the amount of $4,000, $2,500 and $1,500 respectively. (c) $217,000

    Explanation:

    Solution

    (a) The ordinary business income allocated to Jane is given below:

    Particulars Amount Jane allocation 50%

    Overall net income for 2016 $354,000

    Less:

    Long term capital gains $8,000

    Dividends $5,000

    Tax exempt interest $3,000

    Ordinary business income $338,000 $169,000

    Therefore ordinary business income allocated to Jane = $169,000

    (b) The amount and character of separately stated items allocated to Jane is given below:

    Particulars Amount Jane allocation 50%

    Separately stated items:

    Long term capital gains $8,000 $4,000

    Dividends $5,000 $2,500

    Tax exempt interest $3,000 $1,500

    (c) Jane's stock basis at the end of the year is given below:

    Jane's stock basis at the end of the year = k + allocation (50%) + long term capital gains (50%) + dividends (50%) + tax exempt interest (50%))

    = ($40,000+$169,000+$4,000+$2,500+$1,500)

    = $217,000

    Hence stock basis at the year end is $217,000
