I’m a bit confused; I thought the holding period return was more about total returns, not just yields. Could it be A?

I practiced a question like this where the holding period return was definitely tied to dividends. I feel like B is the right answer.

I remember something about yields, but I'm not entirely sure if it's just the capital gain yield or if dividends are included too.

Easy peasy, the holding period return is just the sum of the capital gain and the dividend yield. No need to overcomplicate it.

I got this! The holding period return is the total return on the stock, including both the capital gain and the dividends received. B is the way to go.

Haha, the answer is definitely not D. The risk premium has nothing to do with the holding period return. Someone's trying to trick us here!

Hmm, this looks like a classic finance question. I think B is the correct answer - the holding period return is the capital gain yield plus the dividend yield.
