Ok, I think I understand your question,
Let me try and explain with an example:
Lets say You have a UP of 5
lets also say your UPR is 100%
At this rate You will get 100% of 5 units per turn
If you up the UPR to 105, you will get 105% of 5 units per turn.

Same thing goes for unit strength, health and all those other stats.
You will have a base setting (a numberxthe upgrade percent) and all percent upgrades will improve that base number.

Now I may be very very wrong, as I only played a little bit of chaos before moving back to main. So if I am wrong, you know the drill
(call the navy, army, marines, and mods)
