Answer:

400

Explanation:

The initial value of the investment is 100 *1 = $100

The final value of the investment after three months is 100 * 5 = $500

This means the value of the investment has increased from $100 to $500. The capital gain is the increase in the value of an investment;

500 - 100 = $400
