Temporary memories (A-H, X-Z)
Press gand the variable key to store a value in memory.
Press fand the variable key to recall a value from the memory.
To place a variable in an equation, press iand the variable key.
Independent memory (M)
In addition to all the other features of temporary memories, a value can be added to or subtracted from an existing memory value.
Press sgMto clear the independent memory (M).
Last answer memory (ANS)
•The calculation result obtained by pressing =or any other calculation ending instruction (including storing and recalling operations) is automatically stored in the last answer memory.
•Listed fi nancial variables are automatically stored in the last answer memory by displaying the variable and the value.
TVM variables
TVM variables can be recalled using fin the same way as temporary memories. It is not necessary to press gto store a value.
Listed financial variables
Financial variables are specifi c to the type of calculation they are used in. For example, the variable N is available to the TVM solver but not to discounted cash fl ow analysis calculations. If you want to carry a value from a variable over into a different type of calculation, use one of the following methods:
•Last answer memory (ANS): Within the original calculation, display the variable and value that you wish to carry over. The value is automatically entered into last answer memory. Press sto exit the calculation (the listed financial variables will disappear from the screen), and press i/to bring up the value from the previous calculation. M-D-Y (D-M-Y) 1 and M-D-Y (D- M-Y) 2 are not stored in last answer memory.
•Variables common to both calculations: If the value that you wish to carry over is held in a variable that exists in both types
15
of calculation (for example, both bond calculations and the TVM solver use the variable I/Y), you can retrieve the value simply by switching calculation types and bringing up the variable.
Statistical variables
Statistical data is not entered into variables. Statistical variables are the results of the calculation of statistical data. Therefore, you cannot enter values directly into statistical variables. After calculation, however, you can use the values held in statistical variables in subsequent calculations.
Note: Use of for iwill recall the value stored in memory using up to 14 digits.

Variables used in financial calculations
Financial calculations use multiple variables. By entering known values into variables, you can obtain unknown values. Variables used in financial calculations are categorized into the following two types, depending on the entry method.
TVM variables:
Variables that are used in the TVM solver. These include N, I/Y, PV, PMT and FV. You can store, recall or calculate values directly using the corresponding keys.
Listed financial variables:
Variables that are organized into lists in different categories. These variables can be accessed using the z/icursor keys in each calculation. P/Y and C/Y in the TVM solver are of this type of variable.
Variables shared among calculations
Financial variables are specific to the type of calculation they are used in. Values are stored in these variables and recalled as required. Some variables are shared (in the memory area) among calculations. If you change the value of a variable in one calculation, the value will change in all the other calculations as well. The following list shows the variables shared between calculations. While calculating, be aware of the values stored in these variables.

Compound interest
This calculator assumes interest is compounded periodically in financial calculations (compound interest). Compound interest accumulates at a predefined rate on a periodic basis. For example, money deposited in a passbook saving account at
a bank accumulates a certain amount of interest each month, increasing the account balance. The amount of interest received each month depends on the balance of the account during that month, including interest added in previous months. Interest earns interest, which is why it is called compound interest.
It is important to know the compounding period of a loan or investment before starting, because the whole calculation is based on it. The compounding period is specified or assumed (usually monthly).

Basic examples for the TVM solver
1 Calculating basic loan interest
A $56,000 mortgage loan (compounded monthly) requires monthly payments of $440 during its 20-year amortization period. Calculate the annual interest rate on the mortgage.
PV = $56,000
FV = 0
. . . . . .
I/Y = ?% PMT = –$440
N = 12 × 20 years = 240
Default values for the number of payments per year (P/Y) and the number of compounding periods per year (C/Y) are both set to 1. Set these values before entering TVM variable values.
