  Historical cost of the asset $82,000  
  Accumulated depreciation on the asset $43,000  
  Note payable secured by the asset* $25,000  
  Agreed-upon market value of the asset $48,000  
*will be assumed by the partnership
 
Based on this information, Trump's beginning equity balance in the partnership will be:
$23,000
incorrect $48,000
