Answer:

d.$90,000

Explanation:

given data

shares of stock  = 5,000

stock was = $180,000

four years ago cost = $120,000

AGI = $300,000

solution

we know that as per capital gain property in general rule  Pat deduct will be as

deduct = 30% of AGI    .....................1

deduct =  30% of $300,000

current deduct = $90,000

and

remaining will be as

remaining = fair market value - current deduction   .................2

remaining = $180,000 - $90,000

remaining =  $90,000  

so remaining amount carry over up to 5 years  

so correct option is d.$90,000
