Deductions & credits
Ah, now that I know I can speak legal gibberish, that changes how I can respond. 🙂
§1.1001-1(e) shows the gain is based on the actual amount received (assuming the seller's Basis is less than the amount received). See Example #1.

For the buyer, his Basis is USUALLY the actual amount paid, but that can get a bit wonky, depending on the circumstances. See §1.1015-4.

Does that help? If not, please respond with any followup questions.
