Sale price less your original cost gives your gain. Now take your gain and divide that in half as the gain is 50% taxable. Subtract any outlays as well (legal expenses to sell and what not) and then you will have your final capital gains income.

Example:

Sold for 1,000,000 less cost of 500,000 equals a 500,000 proft (YAY). The 500,000 is divided in half leaving 250,000 less your outlays as your capital gains to be taxed in your personal tax return. Which means your fucked..lol
