The gain equals the property 's fair market value less its adjusted basis. Code Sec. (b). However, the corporation does not recognize a loss if the property had declined in value.

The character of the recognized gain depends on the property distributed; thus it may be ordinary income, capital gain, or Section 1231 gain.…
