    The total amount of your capital gains on this investment is $124

    Explanation:

    Capital Gain / loss is the difference between the selling and purchasing prices. Capital gain arises when sales price of an asset is more than purchase price. Capital loss arises when sales price of an asset is less than purchase price.

    Total Purchase value = 100 x $43.89 = $4,389

    Selling price = 100 x $45.13 = $4,513

    Capital Gain = $4,513 - $4,389 = $124
