Dividend income calculator
See what an investment would pay in dividends a year, and per payment, at a yield you enter.
The result
At a 3% yield, $10,000.00 would pay about $300.00 a year.
That would be $75.00 a quarter, or about $25.00 a month on average.
How it is worked out
I = A × y; each payment = I ÷ n
- I
- the yearly income
- A
- the amount invested
- y
- the dividend yield as a decimal (3% is 0.03)
- n
- the number of payments a year
Dividends are not guaranteed: a company can cut or stop them, and the yield moves with the share price. Taxes are left out.
