Step-by-step explanation:

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

Given that

Basis distribution = $42,500

Basis stock = $36,000

Ordinary = $11,800

But Capital gain = Basis distribution - (Basis stock + Ordinary income

= $42,500 - ($36,000 + $11,800)

= $42,500 - $47,800

= - $5,300

Therefore, J.D income related to Clampett

= Ordinary income + Capital gain

= $11,800 - $5,300

= $6,500
