    c. $45,000

    Explanation:

    Net capital loss = net short-term capital gain of 2018 - net long-term capital loss during 2018

    = $65,000 - $250,000

    = - $185,000

    total capital loss set off = 2015 Net short-term capital gain + 2016 Net short-term capital gain + 2017 Net long-term capital gain

    = $60,000 + $45,000 + $35,000

    = $140,000

    amount of loss carryover to 2019 = $185,000 - $140,000

    = $45,000

    Therefore, The amount of Carrot's capital loss carryover to 2019 is $45,000.
