Answer:

Option B $14000

Explanation:

The reason is that the tax adjusted base of the new acquiring asset due to the exchange of asset will be equal to the sum of tax adjusted basis of the Fred's equipment and the additional amount paid.

So here:

New Adjusted base = Old adjusted base + Cash paid

New Adjusted base = $12,000 + $2,000 = $14,000

So the option B is the correct option.
