Answer: B. a 2 point capital gain

Explanation:

Municipal Bonds have to be amortized using the straight-line method and this applied to both newly issued or bonds being traded at a premium.

The bond in question is trading at 105 and so has a 5 point premium which needs to be amortized at 1 point a year for 5 years. As it was bought after two years, the amortization was 2 points which means the cost of the bond should be;

105 - 2 = 103
