Jackson Enterprises had a business building destroyed in a hurricane. The original building was purchased for $300,000, and $90,000 of depreciation deductions had been taken. Insurance proceeds amounted to $650,000. Although the replacement property was much larger and more modern, it qualified as replacement property. Jackson acquired the new property 10 months after the hurricane for $700,000. What is the amount of Jackson's realized gain, recognized gain, and the basis in the new property?
