How it works
Use dividend yield to
estimate annual income.
01Dividend calculation
The investment is multiplied by the expected annual dividend yield, then divided by 12 and 4 for simple averages.
02What the estimate excludes
This is a pre-tax estimate. Payment schedules, dividend changes, taxes, and exchange rates are not included.
03A $10,000 investment yielding 3.5%
This is a pre-tax estimate assuming the dividend yield remains unchanged.
- Annual dividend
- $350
- Monthly average
- $29
- Quarterly average
- $88
The monthly figure is the annual estimate divided by 12. It does not mean the investment pays the same amount every month.
04Frequently asked questions
Will the monthly average be paid every month?
Not necessarily. A company or fund may pay monthly, quarterly, semiannually, or annually. Check its actual distribution schedule.
Does the estimate include dividend tax?
No. It is shown before tax because taxation depends on the asset, account, and investor's jurisdiction.
Will today's dividend yield remain the same?
Not necessarily. Both distributions and market prices can change, so the yield can also change.
