Dividend Yield Calculator

The Dividend Yield Calculator tells you how much income a stock pays relative to its price, and how much cash your holding will generate over a year.

Enter the annual dividend paid per share and the current share price, and the tool returns the dividend yield as a percentage — the standard measure income investors use to compare one stock against another regardless of share price.

Add the number of shares you own and it also shows your total expected annual dividend income.

Yield is calculated as the annual dividend per share divided by the share price, multiplied by 100.

A stock paying 2 in dividends on a 50 price yields 4 percent.

Because the price sits in the denominator, yield rises when a share price falls, which is why a very high headline yield can sometimes signal a troubled company rather than a bargain — always read it alongside payout sustainability.

Use it to screen income stocks, sanity-check a broker’s quoted yield, or project the cash flow from a dividend portfolio.

All maths happens locally in your browser, so the figures you enter are never uploaded or stored, and the calculator works offline once the page has loaded.
