Hi Gregor. I would expect yield on cost numbers to vary widely. Those in dividend growth stocks not adding money will outperform those that are. Generally, every time I make a buy, my yield on cost goes down. This is something I would like to track on my daughters accounts going forward.

My IRA: Current yield per statement 6.1%.

Cost Basis As Of - 06/30/11 $180,870.86
Estimated Income - $13,934.62
YOC = 7.7%

As of June 2010 statement: Current yield = 6.6%

Cost Basis As Of - 06/30/10 $168,564.07
Estimated Income - $12,213.02
YOC = 7.24%
