Dividend Yield Calculator
How much income a holding pays out relative to what it costs.
Method
How it works
Enter the current share price, annual dividend per share and number of shares owned. Dividend yield divides the annual dividend by the share price, while annual income multiplies the dividend by the holding size.
The monthly figure is the annual income divided by 12, so it is an average rather than a payment schedule. Changing the share price changes yield and position cost but does not change income unless the dividend input also changes.
Common questions
Frequently asked questions
Is dividend yield based on the current share price?
Yes. This calculator divides the entered annual dividend per share by the entered share price.
Does the monthly income mean dividends are paid monthly?
No. It is only the annual dividend income divided by 12; actual payment frequency can differ.
Does the calculator account for dividend tax or withholding?
No. It shows gross dividend income from the entered figures and does not deduct tax or fees.
