Sabine · Answer 1

None of the above

Explanation:

The joint tax filling has a tax rate of 12% for amounts up to $77,400 and 22% beyond that amount.

If the loss is adjusted in the current year, then the before tax income becomes $80,000. Therefore, the entire loss should be adjusted in the current year as the carryforward will entail a higher tax outflow in the current period.

Therefore, The answer is None of the above.
