With DGICA at 17.61, here's a table showing how big the annual "dividend" (i.e. total annual call premium received) would need to be to attain 3%, 5%, and 10% annual yields. Also shown is the equivalent number of cents/day necessary to achieve each yield:
| Annual Yield | Annual Premium | Cents/Day |
|---|---|---|
| 3% | 0.53 | 0.1 |
| 5% | 0.88 | 0.2 |
| 10% | 1.76 | 0.5 |
