Hi Karw

I used quarterly closing prices. taking on the first business day of the new month after a dividend was stated. I used yahoo for historic prices.

On Sept 6 or so there was a 70 cent dividend. Oct 1 or so was the closing price of 67 dollars or so .

I just used a 1% multiplier for the number of shares per quarter, As the dividend yield is about 4% per year.

It was a way to systematize the calculations done by hand. I hope explained it if not i'll supply the actual numbers
