Expert Solution
Step 1: Introduction

A capital loss is a loss that results from the decline in the value of a capital asset, such as an investment or real estate. This loss is not recognized until the asset is sold for less than it was originally purchased for. Therefore, when the asset's selling price is less than its purchase price, the difference between the two amounts is effectively a capital loss.
