    C) $60,000

    Explanation:

    According to the §1231 look-back rule, any net §1231 gain of the year must be recaptured as current income to the extent of covering net §1231 losses that may have been deducted during the last 5 years.

    In this case Ashburn must recapture $60,000 as ordinary income to match the $60,000 it had deducted as ordinary loss during the previous 5 years.
