If in 1976 you could buy 5000 shares of what is now Microsoft stock, it would be worth the same as 5000 shares of Microsoft that was purchased today - no matter when you bought it, it would be 5000 x today's stock price of Microsoft (you would probably pay more today). You probably want to know how rich you would be today if you had purchased 5000 shares of Microsoft stock in 1976. That would take some research because the shares of Microsoft stock available in 1976 are probably not the same as what is available today (because of splits and other events that could have occurred).

I have 2 shares purchased in 1976. I called the company today and the customer service rep was very enthusiastic that it would be worth my time to visit one of the companies locations with my paperwork. Though by company policy they couldn't give me the exact amount on the phone the rep was very positive.

The shares would be worth $2,800.00 today giving you a profit before tax of $2,200.00.

I understand that MCO was taken over in 1988 by United Meridian Corp and shares were purchased at $0.40 per share.
