I.R.C. § 1060(a)(2) — the gain or loss of the transferor with respect to such acquisition, the consideration received for such assets shall be allocated among such assets acquired in such acquisition in the same manner as amounts are allocated to assets under section 338(b)(5).
A common rule of thumb is 100 minus your age to determine your allocation to stocks. For example, if you are 30, then you'd allocate 70% to stocks and 30% to bonds (100 - 30 = 70). If you are 60, you'd allocate 40% to stocks and 60% to bonds (100 - 60 = 40).

The seller usually seeks to maximize amounts allocated to assets that will result in capital gains tax while minimizing amounts allocated to assets that will result in ordinary income taxes.
