Stock Average Price Formula
The weighted average reflects all shares and purchase costs entered.
Weighted average acquisition cost
Total purchase cost = Σ (Shares bought × Purchase price per share)
Current market value = Current price × Total shares
Estimated unrealized P/L = Current market value − Total purchase cost including fees
Unrealized P/L (%) = Unrealized P/L ÷ Total cost × 100
