FAQ

How do I calculate total stock return?

Enter shares, starting price, ending price, and any dividends received. The result is the gain in dollars and as a percentage of your starting value.

Does total return include dividends?

Yes. Total return here is the price change plus the dividends you enter, divided by your starting cost — so it captures income as well as price movement.

Is this a forecast of future returns?

No. It is a simple arithmetic estimate of a scenario you define; it does not predict future prices.
