Accounting

Ruth Ames died on January 10, 2021. In filing the estate tax return, her executor, Melvin Sims, elects the primary valuation date and amount (fair market value on the date of death). On March 12, 2021, Melvin invests $30,000 of cash that Ruth had in her money market account in acquiring 1,000 shares of Orange, Inc. ($30 per share). On January 10, 2021, Orange was selling for $29 per share. The stock is distributed to a beneficiary, Annette Rust, on June 1, 2021, when it is selling for $33 per share. What basis should Annette take in the shares? Explain?
