    Without more detailed information, we can't specifically identify what your capital gain is caused by, but when you sell something at a gain, you typically will have a capital gain.  This can be from stocks, personal items, a home, or more.

    No one can see your screen or your tax return so we cannot guess why you have capital gains.  There are a variety of possible reasons.  Provide some details about what kinds of income you have entered.
