Calculator Dividend Reinvestment

Some publicly traded companies retain earnings to aggressively seek growth opportunities. Others will disperse some of the profit with shareholders in the form of a dividend. Either way, the owner of the shares should be rewarded with capital gain in appreciating share price or a regular dispersion of income that can be saved or reinvested.

Some dividend paying companies will also have what is called a DRIP or a Dividend Reinvestment Plan.
