Answer:

D) $0

Explanation:

The insurance company paid $250,000 to Grant to cover the loss of his house and that amount was 100% of the fair market value of the house. To calculate any casualty gain or casualty loss the money received form the insurance company should have been either larger or smaller than the fair market value of the house.
