Frequently asked questions
Is yield the same as total return?
No. Yield counts only dividends; it ignores any change in the share price itself. For anything binding, check with a qualified professional about your specific situation.
What if share price is zero?
That makes the ratio undefined, so the tool requires a positive share price. For anything binding, check with a qualified professional about your specific situation.
Are taxes included in the gain?
No. The tool shows the raw gain or yield from your inputs; capital-gains tax applies on top and varies by jurisdiction. For anything binding, check with a qualified professional about your specific situation.
