Gilbert is a CPA and a member of the AICPA. Bradley is a CPCU (Chartered Property Casualty Underwriter). The corporation performs auditing and tax services under Gilbert’s direction and insurance services under Bradley’s supervision.
One of the corporation’s first audit clients was Grandtime Company. Grandtime had total assets of $600,000 and total liabilities of $270,000.

Three owners join together to form ABC, INC., which properly elects to be taxed as a C corporation. Shareholder A contributes cash of $10,000 and a collection of jewelry display cases to be placed in the jewelry store operated by the C corporation. The jewelry display cases have a basis in A’s hands of $112,000, and a fair market value of $81,000. B contributes $10,000 in cash and jewelry inventory having a basis in B’s hands of $35,000 and a fair market value of $81,000. C contributes inventory having a basis in C’s hands of $120,000 and a fair market value of $96,000. Since each of the three of them have agreed to be equal shareholders, it was determined that it was fair to distributed $5,000 in cash to Shareholder C because her initial contribution had a fair market value of $5,000 more than the contribution of either A or B.
What is the balance in A’s capital account immediately following her contribution?
