Purchaser doesn't. His concern is only that he paid $10K and how to allocate that for the assets acquired.
Does the bill of sale break down the sales price between the inventory and F&F? Was a form 8594 prepared? That allocation is what you need to know. Seller also needs to know that allocation for reporting his side of the transaction too.
