    From my understanding, formations= non-taxable events, IF (i) there is a >= 80% control
    and (ii) No receipt of boot (cash and/or excess debt put into corp.)

    So, how do you treat a taxable (?) transaction with both cash and debt?

    Al and Bob formed a corporation.
    Al contributed–> Bldg. @ adjusted basis $40,000
    Mortgage on bldg $10,000
    The corporation in return gave Al 90% interest (fmv @ $90,000) and $6,000 cash.

    1) Realized gain by AL?
    2) Recognized gain by AL?
    3) Al’s basis in stock?
    4) Corp’s basis in the building?
