Search the forum for IRR, this was discussed around Jan 1st. There is more than one way.
The easiest way
(Beginning balance/ending balance)-1
If you had desposits
[(Beginning balance+deposits)/ending balance]-1
If you had several deposits over course of year, you could approximate it by
[(begin balance-.5*deposits)/(ending balance+.5*deposits)]-1
