Answer:

b.$10,000 and $40,000.

Explanation:

Under the ordering rules for distributions, cash is distributed first, then followed by unrealized receivables and inventory; other assets are distributed last.

For Petra, the inventory is distributed first and takes a carryover basis of $40,000.

This reduces Petra's basis to $10,000. The land is distributed next and takes the $10,000 remaining basis

$50,000 (partnership interest) – $40,000 (inventory) = $10,000 (land distribution)
