Dividend reinvestment (DRIP)

Compare reinvesting dividends into more shares with taking them as cash.

What you enter

  • Initial investment
  • Share price today
  • Dividend yield
  • Yearly dividend growth
  • Yearly share price growth
  • Tax on dividends
  • Years

How this is calculated

  • Each year the dividend per share = previous dividend × (1 + dividend growth); the first year's is price × yield.
  • With DRIP, the after-tax dividend buys more shares at that year's price.
  • Without DRIP, after-tax dividends accumulate as cash (not invested).
