    The correct option is C,$120,000

    The casualty loss can be computed by comparing the value of the of Nicole weekend home just before the casualty and immediately after it had occurred.

    The value of the weekend home before the eventuality was $260,000 (recent appraisal value).

    Besides, the value of the weekend home after the hurricane is $140,000, hence the diminution is $120,000 ($260,000-$140,000), as a result the casualty loss is $120,000
