A capital gain is an increase in the value of invested money eg the rise in the value of shares, the increase in value of land or property, the increase in value of a work of art, etc In the UK capital gain is taxable by the iniquitous Capital Gains Tax. The gain is only realised when the investment is sold. Tax can then be computed on the gain.
To account for the declaration of a property dividend, you must first restate the property at fair value, recognizing any gain or loss as the difference (125,000) between the property's fair value (750,000) and carrying value (625,000) at the DATE OF DECLARATION. Investment in securities 125,000 Gain of appreciation of securities 125,000 Retained Earnings 750,000 Property Dividends payable 750,000 At the DATE OF DISTRIBUTION of the property dividends: Property Dividends payable 750,000 Investment in securities 750,000
Yes

Ignoring any possible reasons, (like primary home) that the gain would otherwise be exempt.... The basis of the property in your hands is the amount of the value from the inheritance/estate. You would have a gain from that amount (plus any additions of course). This is actually a great thing...say the person you ingherited it from paid 100K....the gain of thew 300K (100-400), is NOT taxed. This is called a stepped up basis.
You can have a taxable gain on the sale of personal property however you obtain the property. Individuals do no have to pay estate taxes, the estate of a deceased person would have to pay any inheritance taxes due before property was dispersed to the heirs. As to the sale of property by someone who inherited property, you would owe taxes on any gain on have from the sale of such property. You basis (value) of the property is the fair market value of such property on the date of death of the previous owner. This is called a stepped up basis and a benefit of inherited property.
Actually inheritance (if any) taxes were handled when you received the property. That point in time establishes your basis in owning the property. What you sell it for above that value essentially decides what your taxable gain will be.
An equity investment, on the other hand, represents a residual interest in the property. When you are an equity investor, you are essentially the owner of the property. You stand to gain a lot when the property value increases or if you are able to get more rent for your building.
