    Foreign tax credit = $75,000

    Carry forward balance = 0

    Explanation:

    As per the data given in the question,

    Precredit U. S. tax = $315,000

    Taxable income = $150,000

    Foreign source = $300,000

    Foreign source taxable income = $150,000

    Paid = $60,000

    Foreign income tax = $15,000

    Pierre can have foreign credit tax = $60,000 + $15,000

    =$75,000 whereas carry forward amount is zero
