    D) March 31, 2014, for 125 shares and January 22, 2018, for 10 shares.

    Explanation:

    Since Andrew sold 125 shares on January 1, 2018 and then bought 135 shares on January 22, 2018, the wash-rule applies to 125 shares. That means that the holding period for 125 shares is March 31, 2014.

    The remaining 10 shares' holding period starts on January 22, 2018.
