Answer: C. $48,000 capital gain

Explanation:

To calculate the Gain or loss on the sale of Jackson's interest we will subtract his adjusted basis from the sale of his entire interest in the following manner,

Gain(loss) on sale of interest = Amount realised - Adjusted basis in partnership

= 112,000 - 64,000

= 48,000

$48,000 will be his Gain on the sale of his interest. It will also be considered CAPITAL as he does not have Hot assets like inventory just equity.
