Find the nearest future year whose weekday-date arrangement matches the year 1987.

Correct answer: Option D — 1998. A reusable calendar requires the same weekday on 1 January and the same leap status. Checking successive years after 1987, the first year satisfying both conditions is 1998. Option A (1988) is rejected because it does not equal the computed result; it represents a counting, direction, leap-year, interval, or hand-motion error. Option B (1989) is rejected because it does not equal the computed result; it represents a counting, direction, leap-year, interval, or hand-motion error. Option C (1990) is rejected because it does not equal the computed result; it represents a counting, direction, leap-year, interval, or hand-motion error. Option D matches the verified calculation.
