Helping notes:
- This is an educational estimate. Actual SCHD dividends and prices vary. Use your own current dividend per share.
- Dividend per share grows by your “Dividend Growth %/yr”. Price growth affects DRIP/contribution share purchases.
- “Total Dividends” is the sum paid; when DRIP is ON, those dividends are assumed reinvested immediately at the year’s end price.
- Yield on cost uses initial market value (shares × current price) plus all monthly contributions as the “cost”.
