A capital asset for an individual taxpayer refers to property held for investment or personal use, such as real estate, stocks, bonds, and personal items like art or collectibles. When these assets are sold, any profit or loss incurred is considered a capital gain or loss, which can impact the taxpayer's income tax liability. Long-term capital gains, typically from assets held for over a year, are usually taxed at lower rates than ordinary income, incentivizing investment. Understanding capital assets is crucial for effective tax planning and compliance.

Capital gains for tax purposes are calculated by subtracting the original purchase price of an asset from the selling price. The resulting profit is then subject to capital gains tax based on the length of time the asset was held and the individual's tax bracket.
