Can anyone lend a hand with reading the Vanguard dividend tables like
this one?
Am I right to think that the table says that your dividend is calculated on the number of shares you have on 24-12-2015, and paid on 05-01-2016?
What is the Record date?
Can I calculate my dividend by multiplying the total distribution per unit by the number of shares I hold?
Is this dividend counted in my 2015 taxes (when it is calculated) or in my 2016 taxes (when I receive it)?
Thanks in advance!
