Answer:

John's capital gain is 50%

Explanation:

The dividends that John received are taxed as part of his gross income, but if he kept the UGA stock for more than a year and then sold it for a profit, his gain will be taxed as capital gains:

capital gain per stock = $15 (selling price) - $10 (purchase price) = $5

A $5 gain represents a 50% capital gain (= ($5 / $10) x 100)
