Request a manual from Browning or ask a gunsmith for help
look on the opposite side of the gun, there should be an engraving stating where it was manufactured, if it is Belguim, it was made before 1976, if it was Japan, it could have been made in the late 80s.
Your Browning auto-5 sweet sixteen shotgun with the serial number of S-36040 was made by FN in Belgium in the year 1955.I hope that you find this info of help.

I am also currently planning my sweet 16. I believe the best way to go is with a themed party. Pick one that suits your personality, such as a beach party, casino night, pretty in pink party. There are sooo many options that you can choose from. My advice would be to google themed party ideas and you will gets lists and lists to help you decide. And I personally am doing an Oscar party. Hope this helps :)
