The Olive Partnership makes a proportionate distribution of its assets to Jerry, in complete liquidation of his partnership interest.  The distribution consists of $40,000 in cash and capital assets with a basis to the partnership of $150,000 and a fair market value of $160,000.  None of the payment is for partnership goodwill.  At the time of the distribution, Jerry's partnership basis is $150,000 and the partnership has no liabilities and no "hot assets."  If the partnership makes an optional basis adjustment election on a timely filed return, it recognizes:
