a)Is it possible for an investor to own a token, receive dividends based on ownership of the token without performing a function/service and the token not be considered a security?
b)Is there a way the economics of a token can be structured as a utility token bearing these conditions?

it is possible, economically in risk averse environments you can create your adjustments in a way that u can get a substantial regular yield however he is not high arround 3-6% if you are lucky.
secondary, dividend yield is more complicated term.
a company can reinvest all its earnings instead of paying out dividents, to increase its value, so the stocks rise in value without a single divident paid.
same can be true for coins.
but for this u cant use empty IT system coins, like z-cash dash ripple even btc and ltc cant provide longterm substantial yields

Thank you KingScorpio, I will start my research with your suggestion. Cheers
no problem man for this i studied economics & antrophologics at university 5 years (i should have dropped out after 3.5 years), what you are looking for is a 2D coin or a source coin that is not a coin but a source, you dont transact coins but sources, i am working on one currently i realised the demand in the market long time ago.
here is a thread of mine https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/two-dimensional-cryptographic-currency-looking-for-motivated-co-developer-2222039
but i am not done with the system too publish this kind of "coin" yet
a 2D coin is much more difficult to build than those empty encrypted only IT systems that are out there currently.
