We examine two classes of examples of Hausdorff \'etale factor groupoids; one comes from taking a quotient space of the unit space of an AF-groupoid, and the other comes from certain nonhomogeneous extensions of Cantor minimal systems considered by Robin Deeley, Ian Putnam, and Karen Strung. The reduced C$^*$-algebras of the factor groupoids are classifiable in the Elliott scheme, and we describe their $K$-theory and traces.
Given C$^*$-algebras $A$ and $B$ and a $^*$-homomorphism $\phi:A\rightarrow B$, we adopt the portrait of the relative $K$-theory $K_*(\phi)$ due to Karoubi using Banach categories and Banach functors. We show that the elements of the relative groups may be represented in a simple form. We prove the existence of two six-term exact sequences, and we use these sequences to deduce the fact that the relative theory is isomorphic, in a natural way, to the $K$-theory of the mapping cone.
