Yield on cost is like the Compounding interest of dividend investing? Also the share price will go up with the dividend payout?
Getting 6% a year dividend plus 3% growth is a great 10% a year

Can someone help clear up a question I have for yield on cost?
Lets say, I have owned a stock for 10 years and my yield on cost is now 30%. But, with the stock has a current dividend yield of 3%. If I was to sell my shares and purchase another stock with a dividend yield of 3%, I would have drastically less cash flow right? Even though each stock has the same current yield? The original stock would return more to my pocket in cash flow because of a higher yield on cost?
Im asking this question incase I ever rebalance stocks.

If one minus the dividend amount from the actual invested amount the cost of share investment goes down and the yield goes up.

Using different metrics to change the numbers is a method that should only appeal to stupid people. Im in no way against dividend stocks (to be honest, I prefer dividend stocks over non dividend ones) but IRR should be the metric to be used as it can be used to compare different types of investment. Yield on Cost has no meaning as it has no comparative usage.
