    Let’s say you transfer property to a corporation with Adjusted basis = $80,000.

    FMV = 60,000 in exchange for stock at formation.

    What will be the the shareholder’s basis in the stock he receives?

    I’m thinking Adjusted basis of $80,000, but then it is reduced by the difference of $20,000. So, basis in stock = $60,000.

    Thanks!
