A dividend calculator helps investors work out the income they can expect from dividend-paying shares, accounting for dividend yield, reinvestment (DRIP), tax rates, and compounding over time.

Guida passo passo

1. 1Find the annual dividend per share (or dividend yield × share price)
2. 2Multiply by the number of shares held to get annual dividend income
3. 3If reinvesting, compound each payment back into more shares at the current price
4. 4Apply tax: dividends may be taxed at a preferential rate (qualified dividends) or as ordinary income
