Investment calculator?

Lets say that every Monday at 3pm, I buy $50 worth of stock XYZ. I have done this for the last 5 years.

Is there a calculator (service or website with history) that will show you how much you have gained over time? Since you are buying it at different prices everytime, and there are fees, and there are dividends, and all that playing on it.

I purchase stock through my company, so I don't know the exact time of day or on what days they actually purchase the stock... I was just curious.

EDIT:
Of course, I guess I could just add up the amount I have paid in, and see what the current value of the total shares... That is probably a lot easier... 🙂

Get total rate of return plus 1 (e.g. 1.35) and do power to the 1/5 th (^(1/5)) for yearly.
 
Google will give you tons of these. You can plug in the amount you start with, amount you put in, interest, etc.

Is my rate of return on my stock puchase statement or something? Our stock is through a small broker and they don't have a website... 🙁

So say my total rate of return is 5%, I would do the total amount I bought last year times 1.05, to the 1/5th? And why to the 1/5th?
