Book value is cost less what the books posted; the schedule's figure is
apart. An asset's acquired date comes from its entry. Contributed
property keeps its section 723 carryover basis apart from its depreciable
basis (the lower of value and adjusted basis), with its 704(c) built-in
gain and method. The K-1 worksheet reports tax-basis capital (Form 1065
Item L) beside the book figures, leaving open what only the CPA knows.

Reg. 1.168(i)-4(b)), TaxBasis with the contributor's adjusted basis, Asset::tax_basis and ::built_in_gain (IRC 704(c)); the register gains tax rule, contributor basis, tax basis, built-in gain, total tax basis, missing count (rules.md B-25; sources vendored in docs/spec/sources/irs-partnership-basis.md)
- store: asset.tax_basis_set journaled, replayed, projected (schema v10)
- mcp: books.set_asset_tax_basis; register_asset takes tax_basis_rule and contributor_basis, checked before anything registers (found by the spec-blind suite); list_assets and the register export (json, csv) carry tax basis; instructions say to record it for every asset
- import: the register's XLSX and PDF gain the federal tax basis table with citations
- viewer: tax basis on the Assets page, the asset page (a Tax basis card), the report, the journal, and Needs attention for assets without one
- just: check and the mutation recipes sweep this user's test book dirs older than an hour (killed runs had left 23 GB in RAM-backed /tmp)
