Answer:

The answer is B $280,000

Step-by-step explanation:

capital assets includes investment property and property held for personal use (e.g., personal residence and furnishings), but excludes property used in a trade or business (e.g., limousine).

Therefore the capital assets for Joe Hall is $280,000 which is his personal residence and furnishings excluding his limousine which is for business use
