Like-Kind Exchange.
Response to the following problem:
Bufford wants Jack's farm as a site for an amusement park and offers him $200,000 for the farm. Jack does not want to sell his farm, which has a basis to Jack of $50,000. Bufford is now considering acquiring another farm for $180,000 and then offering that farm plus $20,000 to Jack in exchange for his farm. If Jack accepts this offer, what are the tax consequences?
