How to calculate dividen yield

Posted by sleeplessguy > 2013-11-18 19:57 | Report Abuse

Can somebody help to explain how to calculate dividend yield? I referring the annual report it stated the dividend in an amount (eg 23,113k) instead of how many cent that I can use to divided current stock price to get dividend yield. Also in annual report, is there stated the total volume of the stock?

I know the formula, but not every annual report can find "dividend per share", need to calculate manually.
