Ares Capital (NASDAQ: ARCC) currently yields just over 10%. That's about 10 times higher than the S&P 500.
At that rate, investing $5,000 into the business development company's (BDC) stock would generate a little more than $500 a year in passive income. That's, of course, if Ares Capital can maintain its current dividend rate. Here's a look at the sustainability of its high-yielding payout.

Ares Capital has an excellent dividend track record. The BDC has paid a stable or growing regular dividend for over 16 consecutive years. That's impressive in the BDC **** e, as many of its peers have had to cut their payouts over the years due to falling earnings.
There's some concern about the sustainability of Ares Capital's dividend, given the recent decline in its core earnings.

As a result, core earnings fell short of the $0.48-per-share quarterly dividend.
