Schwabs definition is:
The Total Return is the rate of return representing the price appreciation of a stock with cash dividends reinvested on the pay date for the most recent 1, 3 and 5 fiscal years.

I searched the web and most of the results were how to manually calculate returns with dividends, but none were as simple as Schwab.
Awesome. That gives me a baseline to compare against...

I think i may have found an alternative chart, from stockcharts.com their "Perf chart" shows KMP at ~135% over the last 1100 days (3 yrs), and that matches pretty darn close to Schwab
