About the WM dividend calculator
The Waste Management (WM) dividend income calculator reconstructs what an actual cash investment would have paid out in dividends. At the split-adjusted closing price of $48.25 on Sep 28, 1998, an investment of $1,000 bought 20.73 shares — the cost basis every payout below is measured against, through Jun 5, 2026.
Across that span those shares have paid $819.90 in dividends — about 81.99% of the $1,000 invested. Measured against the entry price, yield on cost moved from 0.02% in its first full year (1999) to 6.84% 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.
