Ahead of Cisco Systems, Inc‘s fourth-quarter earnings report on Wednesday, Aug. 12, investors may be eyeing potential gains from the company’s dividends.

Currently, Cisco has an annual dividend yield of 1.38%, which is a quarterly dividend amount of 42 cents per share ($1.68 a year).

So, how can investors exploit its dividend yield to pocket a regular $500 monthly?

To earn $500 per month or $6,000 annually from dividends alone, you would need an investment of approximately $433,627 or around 3,571 shares. For a more modest $100 per month or $1,200 per year, you would need $86,701 or around 714 shares.

Don’t Miss:

To calculate: Divide the desired annual income ($6,000 or $1,200) by the dividend ($1.68 in this case). So, $6,000 / $1.68 = 3,571 ($500 per month), and $1,200 / $1.68 = 714 shares ($100 per month).
