Solution

The correct statement is D. A capital loss on a financial instrument at the time of the sale can offset a capital gain made on another financial instrument when calculating the taxable income. This is because capital gains and losses are calculated together in the tax return. If you have more capital losses than gains, you may be able to use the excess loss to offset other income.
