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).
To determine the value of 1,000 shares of Boeing purchased in 1980, you would need to know the stock price at that time and the current stock price. If, for instance, the stock price in 1980 was around $20 per share, your initial investment would have been $20,000. As of now, if Boeing's stock is trading at approximately $200 per share, your 1,000 shares would be worth about $200,000. Thus, the value of your investment would have significantly increased over the years.
Depends on what assets you bought.

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.

you would still have 100 shares, they would just not be worth the same each.for example, the price per share was $2 in 1995 and you bought a 100 for $200. Today, the value is $19.36 today which means you would have a little over $1900s worth of Intel's shares.your count of shares doesnt change, just their value does.

Around $120,984. 100 original shares would now be 2,400 shares without the dividend reinvestment. One hundred shares at $180 original if you bought in at $1.80 or so.
