How do we calculate the total shareholder return?
eg 2008 share price = 864, dividends per share = 40, total shareholder return is 58%.
2007 share price = 574, dividends per share = 35, total shareholder return is 82%.November 29, 2013 at 9:00 am #148415The total shareholder return is (increase in share price + dividends) / share price at start of year.
So for your example, in 2008 the share price increased by 290 (864 – 574); the dividends during the year were 40; and the share price at the start of 2008 (end 2007) was 574.
So the total shareholder return for 2008 is (290 + 40) / 574 = 330/574 = 57.5%
(I cannot do it for 2007 because you have not given the share price at the end of 2006, but you should now be able to check for yourself)
