It is time for the monthly dividend income report. The total dividend income for June, 2012 was $305.84, compared with $294.68 in March, 2012. This is one of the bigger months in terms of income.
But it’s still not enough to pay my rent.
If I had 100 shares of all the stocks that paid dividends in June, the income would have been $762.30. For March, if I had 100 shares of all the stocks that paid dividends, the income would have been $733.00.
For June 2011, the income was $236.50, and if I had 100 shares of each stock in June, 2011 the income would have been $637.90. The increase for the theoretical 100 shares was 19%. The increase in the actual income was 29%.
I am not sure why there was a difference in the rates of increase. My guess is that I do not have an equal number of shares of each stock. I will get to this as I write my “Dividend Journey” series. I have different number of shares of each stock.
Here are the stocks:
- AFLAC Inc: $16.87
- American States Water Co: $14.44
- Black Hills Corp: $11.92
- Bemis Co Inc: $15.35
- ConocoPhillips: $33.00
