How to calculate: 

Divide your annual desired income ($6,000 or $1,200) by the dividend yield (0.057).

So, $6,000/0.057 = $105,263 ($8,771 per month), and $1,200/0.057 = $21,052 ($1,754 per month). 

How to Calculate Your Dividend Yield

To calculate your dividend yield, divide the annual dividend payment by the stock's current price.

If a stock pays an annual or squarely dividend of $3.07 and the current price is around $53.80, the dividend yield would be ($3.07/$53.80 = 0.057) 5.7%. However, if the stock price increases to $60, the dividend yield would be ($3.07/$60 = 0.051) 5.1%. If the stock price drops to $40, the dividend yield would be ($3.07/$40 = 0.076) 7.6%. 

A company's revenue determines a rise or fall in its dividend payment. If Realty Income Corp. revenue in 2023 exceeds expected earnings, it could increase its dividend payment and boost yield.
