HPR is the percentage by which the value of a portfolio (or asset) has grown for a particular period. It is the sum of income and capital gainsdivided by the initial period value (asset value at the beginning of the period).

HPR = ((Present Value, or face Value, End-Of-Period Value) + (Any Intermediate Gains eg. Dividends) - (Initial Value)) /(Initial Value)

$HPR_n \ = \ \frac{Income + (P_{n+1} - P_n)}{P_n}$
