Holding value is an indicator of a theoretical value of an asset that someone has in his/her portfolio. It is a value which sums the impacts of all the dividends that would be given to the holder in the future, to help them estimate a price to buy or sell assets.[1]
Expression
The following formula gives the holding value (HV) for a period beginning at i through the period n.
- where
![{\displaystyle {HV}_{[i,n]}=\sum _{k=0}^{n-i}{\frac {div(i+k)}{{(1+r)}^{n-i-k}}}}](https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/c7f273433483011c800d958c7eeef270370479b6)
div = dividend
r = interest rate (of the money if it is kept at the bank; e.g., 0.02 or 2%)
i = the period at the beginning of the estimation
n = the last period considered in the window of future dividends.
