Question - What type of life insurance pays dividends?
Answer - Dividends are paid by participating life insurance policies. The word "participating" suggests that the owner of the policy would get a dividend on the policy if the company earns one. A life insurance company cannot guarantee a dividend as this depends on the performance of the company. Investment performance as well as operating costs come into play.
Whole life policies are participating policies.

To calculate stockholders' equity with dividends included, subtract the total dividends paid out to shareholders from the total equity of the company. This will give you the adjusted stockholders' equity that accounts for dividends.
The Equity Yield Rate, often referred to as the dividend yield, is calculated by dividing the annual dividends per share by the current market price per share. The formula is: [ \text{Equity Yield Rate} = \frac{\text{Annual Dividends per Share}}{\text{Current Market Price per Share}} \times 100 ] This percentage expresses the return on investment from dividends relative to the market price of the equity.

They do not.
Dividends decrease owners' equity because they represent a distribution of a company's profits to its shareholders. When a company pays dividends, it reduces retained earnings, which is a component of owners' equity on the balance sheet. This reduction reflects a decrease in the company's resources that are available for reinvestment or future growth.
The formula for cost of equity is equal to the growth rate of dividends added to the quotient of dividends per share divided by the current market value of stock.
