About the GD dividend calculator
The General Dynamics (GD) dividend income calculator reconstructs what an actual cash investment would have paid out in dividends. At the split-adjusted closing price of $1.04 on Jan 13, 1978, an investment of $1,000 bought 961.54 shares — the cost basis every payout below is measured against, through Jul 2, 2026.
Across that span those shares have paid $75,877.40 in dividends — about 76× the $1,000 invested. Measured against the entry price, yield on cost moved from 5.41% in its first full year (1979) to 569% by 2025, reflecting a dividend that has grown far faster than the price originally paid.
These numbers assume every dividend was taken as cash. Reinvesting instead — the DRIP toggle above — would buy additional shares at each ex-date price, compounding the share count and lifting every subsequent payment.
