    A) The total future cash payments.

    Explanation:

    When a delinquent debtor is restructuring his/her debt and it requires the modification of the credit terms, it will recognize a gain only if the future cash payments (including principal and interest) are lower than the current amount owed.

    The debtor will recognize that difference by writing down the carrying amount of the debt as a gain.
