Harry owns equipment ($50,000 basis and $38,000 FMV) and a building ($140,000 basis and $156,000 FMV), which are used in his business. Harry uses straight-line depreciation for both assets, which were acquired several years ago. Both the equipment and the building are destroyed in a fire, and Harry collects insurance proceeds equal to the assets' FMV. The tax result to Harry for this transaction is
