How do I calculate the capital gain on any shares that I sell?
Ordinarily the gain will be calculated (in EUR) based on the difference between the net proceeds and the ‘base cost’ for the shares sold, although you can also deduct certain costs of sale or acquisition (for example, broker fees).
How do I work out the base cost of my shares?
The base cost of your shares is usually the amount you paid for the shares, although this will depend on how the shares were acquired.
