About this listen

 This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams. In this episode you will learn: - That under §721, neither the partner nor the partnership generally recognizes a gain or loss on the contribution of property for a partnership interest. - How a partner's initial basis is determined by the adjusted basis of the property they contribute, not its fair market value. - How liabilities assumed by the partnership reduce a partner's outside basis by the net amount of debt relief. - The critical exception where a partner must recognize capital gain if the net liability relief exceeds their contributed property's basis. - That contributing services for a partnership interest is a taxable event resulting in ordinary income, as §721 only applies to property.
