yield: The income and/or value appreciation of an investment expressed in terms of the purchase price of that investment. For example, if a property that has sold for $100,000 is worth $2,000 more one year later and has generated an income of $5,000 during the year, the yield to the investor is ($2,000 + $5,000) ÷ $100,000 = .07 or 7%. See Return.
