Answer: C) A debit of $200,000.

Explanation:

In 2018, Hawk sold all the Diamond Investment bonds at $700.

The amount of reclassification adjustment would be;

= Sales price - original purchase price

= (1,000 * 700) - (1,000 * 500)

= $200,000

The amount should be debited to reverse the gains recorded over the other years.
