I got two different 754 situations this year.
1. A single member LLC owns a land @ 100k without income (some expenses paid for future development). Now He sold 50% to another member at 60k for 50% of LLC interest. The new member will have a new basis 60k. The old member reports capital gain on himself. I have done some reseach per Rev. Rul. 99-5, 1999-1 CB 434. It seems like we do not need to do 754 election. Do we need to do 754 here? if not, for book purpose, do we need book 10k under separate asset class. Or we adjust it via m-2 on 1065?
2. Two member owns 90/10 on LLC, also with land development with 1 mil investment. The third member purchased 85% from member 1 @ 1.25 mil. It shall be 754 step up for this one, correct?
