Determining how many shares each dividend payment can buy

mardi 14 octobre 2014

I am on page 650 of the ASM manual. Paragraph 6 and 7.



d = annualized dividend rate



The dividend payments, paid each day, will buy (1+d/365)^365t shares of a stock index from 0 to t, if reinvested.



I don't understand the steps used to derive this formula.



Paragraph 7 is actually a special note trying to explain the confusion the author anticipated. I don't understand the note either.



I don't understand what the author meant by:



"we will consider d to be a constant dividend rate based on the value of the stock index at any moment in time."



Paragraph 7.
