hello:

i just changed jobs and when rolling over my 401k to an IRA, i thought that
the total amount was suspiciously low, just a little more than the total
contribution. that seems strange because i had been 100% invested in index
funds over the last five years.  i have created an excel table with the
following columns:

date(first of every month)	my contribution	company match	total

for all five years. i was fully vested in my company match. in addition to
the above, i have the final amount. how can i use this to calculate a
return?
