About Stock Average Calculator
Stock Average Calculator averages the cost of your shares across multiple buy lots, shows your break-even price, and works out how many more shares you would need at the current price to reach a target average.
Add each lot with its share count and purchase price. The calculator totals your investment and divides by total shares for the average cost, which is also the price the stock must reach for you to break even before fees. The target planner then solves for the extra shares needed at today's price to pull your average to a chosen level, and tells you plainly when that target cannot be reached by buying. Calculator results depend on the inputs, units, assumptions, formulas and reference date or rate where applicable. Confirm units and assumptions, compare the result with a known example when possible, and verify current external rates or rules.
Primary objective: Averages share cost across buy lots and solves for shares needed to reach a target average.
Privacy assurance: The calculation is performed locally in the browser from the values you enter.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the break-even price the same as my average cost?
Yes, before commissions and fees. The stock must trade above your average cost for the position to show a gain.
Why can't I always reach a target average?
Buying can only pull your average toward the price you pay. If the current price is above your target, buying more pushes the average up, not down.
Does it include dividends or fees?
No. It averages purchase prices only; add fees and dividends separately for a full return picture.
What should I check before using the Stock Average Calculator result?
Confirm units and assumptions, compare the result with a known example when possible, and verify current external rates or rules. The result is a mathematical model based on the supplied inputs and assumptions.
Does Stock Average Calculator replace a professional or authoritative source?
