    C) $8,000

    Explanation:

    The IRS established that you can deduct up to $3,000 in capital losses from current income. Any amount that exceeds that threshold must be carried forward so it can be deducted in the future. There is no limit as to how many years they can be carried over, the limit applies only to the amount.

    Since Jordan's total capital losses were $11,000, he should have used $3,000 to offset his 2018 income. That means that he has $8,000 to carryover to 2019.
