Answer:

C. Capital Loss

Step-by-step explanation:

When the selling price of an asset like bonds etc exceeds it purchase price then the capital profit will be the difference between sale and purchase price.

But if the purchase price is greater than the sale price the difference is called Capital loss.

Example: if we buy 100 shares for $20 each and after a year sell them for $ 18 then the difference is called the capital loss.
