Explanation of Solution

Even though Company PJ should have expended $700,000 for the 1,000 acres, it does not have a cost basis in the land. Rather, Company PJ is having a substituted basis of only $475,000 (basis of the property Company PJ surrendered in the nontaxable exchange).

Thus, PJ’s recognized gain on sale of the land exceeds the $600,000 appreciation by $225,000.
