$5,000

Ordinary income = $10,000

Computation of Capital gain:

Capital gain = Basis distribution - Basis stock - Ordinary income

Capital gain = $50,000 - $45,000 - $10,000

Capital gain = - $5,000

Computation of J.D. income related to Clampett = Ordinary income + Capital gain

Computation of J.D. income related to Clampett = $10,000 - $5,000
