At the alternative<br \/>\nvaluation date the cartoon was valued at $2,500. It is a valuable cartoon as it<br \/>\nfeatured a character, Charlotte Braun, included in only 10 comic strips. It is<br \/>\ncurrently listed and is expected to sell at an auction house for $10,000<br \/>\ntomorrow. She will have to pay a commission of 3% to sell it. She intends to<br \/>\nsplit the proceeds with her brother. What is the tax impact of her selling the<br \/>\nPeanuts cartoon? She doesn\u2019t want to accept the final auction amount before<br \/>\nhearing from you. Both Happy and her brother are at 22% marginal tax bracket.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"color: inherit; font-size: 11pt; background-color: var(--color-6); font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit;\"><br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Your memo should include the four sections of a research<br \/>\nmemo discussed in class.
