$112,500,

gain,

$102,500

Explanation:

Darla's amount realized on the sale is calculated by adding the dollar value of the building and lot received worth $200,000 plus + the cash of $25,000 in the exchange minus - her expenses on the trade which is the sales commissions to the real estate broker of $10,000;

$200,000 + $25,000 - $10,000 = $215,000.

The adjusted basis in the assets sold is (original cost of current location-Depreciation on the facility) $150,000 - $37,500 = $112,500.

   Since the amount realized on the sale is greater than the  original cost of current location the exchange produced a realized gain.

The  realized gain is (Darla's amount realized on the sale) $215,000 - $112,500 (adjusted basis in the assets sold) = $102,500
