Stock Value Calculator Knowledge Base
Is there a Historical Stock Calculator online? I surprisingly can't find any calculator that allows you to determine how much an stock investment is (or would have been worth) over time. Does anyone know of a site/widget/tool where you can enter an amount, stock, and date and it will calculate today's value (with dividends and splits included into it's algorithm)?
What is the problem with this java code? if (doubleResults >= 0) { JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Stock value gained: " + doubleResults + ".", "Stock Value Calculator"); } else { JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Stock value lost: " + doubleResults + ".", "Stock Value Calculator")};
Where can I found a program which can calculate stock price? I need a stock price calculator which calculates stock price based on company performances (eg. it gives stock price when you input company's assets, cash, revenues, total number of shares, etc.) It would also be good if it could count dividend yield (again based on needed values which can be imputed). By the way - I am not looking for portfolio calculators which calculate returns and portfolio values, I just need to examine company shares price based on the accounting details I have about it.
What is the best way to find historical industry market value stock prices? I am doing a paper on KO and I have the profitability section of the paper. We are suppose to show why KO is a strong company. I decided a for one of my graphs showing the growth of $1 invested in KO as compared to a general market fund like the S&P 500 and the beverage-soft drink industry average would be a good way to show the strength of Coke over the years. I have the numbers for KO and S&P. For KO I used the market value and the cumulative returns formula (1979-2009) found here http://ir.thecoca-colacompany.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=94566&p=irol-stocksplit ... Then for S&P if found a nice little calculator thing.... However I have been having trouble with the industry part of the graph. Yahoo Finance has the industry but no historical data. So I was thinking I would just put KO's 3 main competitors up there DPS, PEP, and Nestle. But, I am still having trouble finding market values for those companies. At least non of them are as convenient as KOs. Any help or suggestions would be great... Thanks

Does money buy happiness? Does money buy happiness? I BELIEVE IT DOES, 100 PERCENT. WHY????? People with a Bachelor's degree, Masters and PH.D's will generally earn a respectable income, in addition, they will enjoy a life time career that relates to their degree. These people will generally have a better looking wife, nicer home, reside in a safer neighborhood, they generally have an excellent retirement packages and their off spring will continue their success. Others with degrees that earn sub par wages and while working in non-respectable jobs are generally depressed and prone to commit suicide. They will lose hope to in the American Dream, they will have less prospects in life, and their off spring will either end up in jail or six feet under. These people are coupled with American's that had no desire to go to college, yet I see more American's emerging into the Proletarian status. ============================================================================ All I care about in life is myself, because your career/income is your self worth in life and women admire rich men. I work in a depression proof industry and my fiscal income can range from $52k to $60k, in an industry that I only worked in for only 15 months, furthermore, I invest my money and I use "margin money" to increase my Margin Account and Net Worth. What do they generally want, a man with a good to great career/home/car/personality/etc.... ==================================================================== "This Black-Scholes calculator allows you to figure out the value of a European call or put option. The calculator uses the stock's current share price, the option strike price, time to expiration, risk-free interest rate, and volatility to derive the value of these options. The Black-Scholes calculation used by this tool assumes no dividend is paid on the stock" http://www.money-zine.com/Calculators/Investment-Calculators/Black-Scholes-Calculator/ Will, I AM extremely bored in life, perhaps because I currently have no GF and Children to support. I work all the time and barely home. That amount of income I am generating is still pocket change, compared to hedge fund managers and high-end Engineers. chloe, I personally feel self confident, superior and more important because my income/net worth continues to stock pile, whereas I think it is utterly pathetic how some of my non-educated friends cannot save $3k. I saved over $30k, just in 2010 when you include my tax return! I could of hooked up with some "blond girl", but I am gone all the time and I work in a SEMI respectable job.
Buy and Hold vs Taking a Profit? Well I've been thinking lately. I'm a value investor, so I like to play around with a discounted cash flow calculator to arrive at what I think are fair values for different companies. Obviously it is impossible to know the perfect growth rate, weighted average cost of capital, etc., but I like to make conservative estimates nonetheless. However, the prevailing theme in the value arena is to buy a good stock and hold it for multiple years. Let's say you calculate the fair value of a stock to be $15, and you buy it for $5. In 5 months it goes up to $15. It's a good company, but based on your calculations it is not a value anymore (it's at fair value). To me, instead of holding the stock at this point, it makes more sense to take your profit since the stock is not granting you any advantage over any other fairly priced stock. Also, things can turn sour and without a margin of safety going forward, that might spell trouble. Does this attitude make sense?

Finance math help! (10pts)? 19 Future Value Of An Annuity: Your client is 40 years old; and she wants to begin a saving retirement, with the first payment to come one year from now. She can save $5,000 per year; and you advise her to invest it in the stock market, which you expect to provide an average return of 9% in the future. Since our client is not making the payment until after the first year, this is an ORDINARY ANNUITY. 0[---------1[-----------2[----etc[ $5,000 $5,000 etc PMT=5,000 I/Y=9 Step 1.

Ideas for extra cash! (I'm not one of the lazy hands out idiots...I know it takes work!)? I'm looking for specific work to meet my availability! I'm 17 years old and live in Central PA. Carlisle/Mechanicsburg area. I have a job now, that even at part time is a steady 18-25 hours/week. I just need a little extra each month to be able to pay a slightly higher car payment. So, I'm looking for something to fit in on the days I have off work. My biggest problem is that I don't have a set schedule, so every Thursday is when I find out the following weeks schedule. I wouldn't mind if the employer could just put me on the schedule for the days I have off on such short notice or if I could pick my own hours. I'm going to be exerting myself as it is, so I'd like the pay to be more than minimum wage, depending on the tasks. I know this sounds crazy, looking for a job at 17 and asking for the power to pick my schedule and make more than what I normally do, but I think it's reasonable considering I already have a job and a wide variety of skills. I'm not trying to brag on Yahoo, but I need an employer to be able to see what they're looking for. As for my skills; I can cook moderately well with a good understanding of a fast paced kitchen, above average understanding of computers(including microsoft software), ashamed to list, but I'm a gamer, Call of Duty especially, not incredible, but better than most, I have excellent people-skills, I'm very calm and confident when speaking to a group – big or small, I'm very careful about my work, with very close attention to detial, catching many mistakes on teacher hand-outs, as well as when revising my own work, almost always grammatically correct(please don't point out if I have a mistake.. ha), I have a Gifted IQ, I work best in heated situations - deadlines and competitions, a quick learner, elected a leadership role by equal others frequently, for various things from planning and executing a large event or recipe, all the way up to my manager giving me decision roles, I can think extremely quickly on my feet in clutch situations, I excel greatest in mathematics (I do a lot of quick mental math at the times of others using calculators, nothing too extreme though) and English (don't judge by this post since it's purely informational, but my writings in class have been sent to college professors a few times, as well as compared to editors of magazines), I have no artistic form of creativity whatsoever, I express my ideas through my writings and sometimes hands-on brain buster models that we solve in my Gifted Program class, but not drawings, I have reliable transportation to and from work, I'm not an overweight lazy gamer, but I don't have an extreme muscular build, more so that I'm still rather athletic though, strong enough to lift and organize boxes in the stock room at my job now, not knowledgeable enough to be a mechanic, but learning ins-and-outs of a car is my latest fad, so learning more while working would be IDEAL! I follow sports pretty closely, basketball and football mainly, I play billiards competitively, and lastly I have a passion for music, unfortunatley not making or playing, but listening to it intensively, being able criticize and translate the meaning in my head automatically like I do with corrections. I work in a retail store now, which requires me to communicate with co-workers and also new and returning customers, keep an appropriate visual presentation of the store, keep the stock room organized and able to easily access, contribute to a team effort of overall sales, work a cash register quickly and efficiently, receive and return money with correct value, stay productive throughout my shift and cheesy enough, to have a positive attitude toward even the most uncooperative customers! I listed so many examples mainly because of the possibilities that are out there. I'm open to all suggestions and tips! I've looked into jobs satisfying my criteria, like Triond.com, a website “paying” you for writing articles about almost anything, including the behind the scenes of video games. A company supporting Cutco Kitchenware, a scam/marketing oppurtunity for people with selling experience, driving capability and people skills, is a similar problem. Triond.com and Cutco are two examples of places that would be fantastic, I just don't know if they're real or if they're scams. If anyone has any FACTUAL, REAL, VISUAL proof that either of these two, or any alike are real, please let me see! Lastly, keep in mind these ideas before suggesting... 1. Flexible Hours/Reasonable Pay 2. I don't mind being around cars, driving or working on them. Trying to learn more. 3. It doesn't even have to be a job that I leave the house for. I already said about the online articles. Ideas like those are perfect, given they're REAL! 4. Sadly, $$$ > Values 5. I'm only 17. 18 after summer, so hours of the job would have to abide by PA State Laws. Thank you for
