About VIG
VIG tracks the S&P U.S. Dividend Growers Index, holding companies with a record of raising dividends while excluding the very highest yielders. It is one of the largest dividend-growth ETFs, favoured for quality and a rising payout over a high starting yield.
VIG is a dividend-growth etf from Vanguard that distributes quarterly. Because dividend investing is about both income and the growth of that income, the calculator above lets you model three things independently for VIG: the starting yield, how fast the dividend grows each year, and how fast the share price appreciates. That separation matters most for high-yield versus dividend-growth choices, where a lower starting yield that grows quickly can overtake a higher static yield over time.
How to use the VIG calculator
- Replace the pre-filled yield with VIG’s current dividend yield from your broker or the fund’s page.
- Set your initial investment and monthly contribution.
- Estimate the dividend growth rate and price growth rate. For a dividend-growth etf these can differ a lot — be realistic rather than optimistic.
- Choose your dividend tax rate and whether to reinvest (DRIP), then read the projected value, dividends received, and yield on cost.
The full math, including how the money-weighted return is computed, is on the methodology page.
VIG dividend calculator FAQ
- How does this VIG dividend calculator work?
- It runs a month-by-month projection: each month it adds your contribution, pays a dividend based on the yield, optionally reinvests it (DRIP), then applies price growth. The page loads pre-filled with VIG's current yield (about 1.50% as of Jul 10, 2026); adjust the dividend-growth, price-growth, and tax assumptions to fit your own outlook.
- What yield should I use for VIG?
- As of Jul 10, 2026, VIG's dividend yield was about 1.50% ($3.5813 per share over the trailing year). Yields move with the share price, so use the current figure from your broker rather than a fixed number. Enter the trailing or forward yield, whichever you prefer to model.
- How often does VIG pay dividends, and when?
- Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF pays a quarterly dividend; its most recent payment was $0.9988 per share, ex-dividend Jun 26, 2026. This calculator compounds monthly and projects annual totals, so it works the same regardless of the payment schedule — the cadence just affects when cash actually lands in your account.
- Is the VIG projection a guarantee?
- No. It is an educational projection based on the assumptions you enter, held constant. Real dividends can rise, be cut, or stop, and prices fluctuate. Use it to compare scenarios, not to predict returns, and never rely on a single calculator for an investment decision.
