i am writing an undergraduate disseration looking at performance pay and CEO incentives within the US oil and gas industry.  i am looking at about 50 firms over a 5 year period.  i need a measure for total shareholder wealth that is relatively easy to calculate (i've only got about 2 weeks), i can easily obtain data for (I have access to annual reports and proxy statements),  and can be regressed on CEO compensation.  if you could give me the formula for such a measure and instructions on where to find the data, that would be much appreciated.  

thanks in advance for any help you can give,
