Answer:

$25,000, $25,000.

Explanation:

For computing the gain recognized, first we have to determine the gross profit percentage which is shown below:

= (Sale value of land - land basis) ÷ (Sale value of land)

= ($300,000 - $250,000) ÷ ($300,000)

= $50,000 ÷ $300,000

= 16.67%

Now the recognized gain would be

First year = $150,000 × 16.67% = $25,000

Second year = $150,000 × 16.67% = $25,000
