Unrealized Gain

What is it? The profit you would have earned on an asset, but have not yet sold. Since you have not actually received any cash profit, its an unrealized (or paper) gain on which no taxes are due. (If you were to sell the asset for more than what it cost, taxes would be due on the profit you realized.)
