Sep 3, 2020 at 18:11 comment added D Stanley I don't see Dividend Payout Ratio on Yahoo (only Dividend Yield). Can you post a screenshot of were you see payout ratio?
Sep 3, 2020 at 18:07 comment added Charco Basically I am trying to see where the dividend payout ratio comes from based on the financial statements. As I mentioned I have tried to calculate this with 3 different companies and each time I get a ratio that far larger than the dividend payout ratio reported in a companies quote snapshot (i.e. on Yahoo etc.). So this makes me think there is something I am overlooking or the way I am calculating it (see original question) is oversimplified...
Sep 3, 2020 at 17:02 comment added D Stanley OK I thought you were comparing payout to yield. What are you comparing them against? 1.35% yield looks pretty close to what I see on Yahoo (1.43%).
Sep 3, 2020 at 16:34 comment added Charco yeah I know but in both cases you need to calculate the dividends paid out by the company. My question was how to calculate that from the balance sheet / income statement. My point was that I cannot back calculate dividends paid out from these financial statements and I can't seem to figure out why ? Maybe there is an explanation in the financial statements that I am not familiar with.
Sep 3, 2020 at 12:49 comment added D Stanley Dividend payout ratio is different than Dividend Yield. Dividend Yield is dividend divided by share price - payout ratio is the percentage of earnings that are paid out in dividends (dividends divided by net income)
