How This Calculator Works (Formulas Used)

Updated on March 1, 2026
  • Annual dividend income = shares × annual dividend per share
  • Dividend yield = (annual dividend per share ÷ share price) × 100
  • Yield on cost = (annual dividend per share ÷ average purchase price) × 100
  • Payout per period = annual dividend ÷ payments per year
  • Dividend after tax = dividend × (1 − tax rate)
  • DRIP reinvestment = each after-tax payout buys more shares at that period's share price
