Example: You sold your vacation property that you originally purchased for $200,000. The sale was completed after June 25th, 2024, for $600,000.

You can calculate the capital gains as follows:
Since the full capital gain is not taxable, you can calculate the inclusion rate, the amount you will need to claim as income at tax time as follows:
$125,000 + $90,000 = $215,000
You must add $215,000 to your income at tax time to be taxed at your marginal tax rate.
