Choosing the Number of Decimal Places Displayed

The calculator stores numeric values internally to an accuracy of 13 digits, but you can specify the number of decimal places you want to display. The calculator displays up to 10 digits with the floating-decimal option. Results exceeding 10 digits appear in scientific notation.
4 Overview of Calculator Operations
Changing the number of decimal places affects the display only. Except for amortization and depreciation results, the calculator does not round internal values. To round the internal value, use the round function. (See “Rounding & o” on page 10.)
Note: All examples in this guidebook assume a setting of two decimal places. Other settings might show different results.

Choosing the Angle Units

The angle unit value affects the display of results in trigonometric calculations. When you select radians, the RAD indicator appears in the upper right corner of the display. No indicator appears when you select the default setting of degrees.

Using Dates

The calculator uses dates with the Bond and Date worksheets and the French depreciation methods. To enter dates, use this convention: mm.ddyy (US) or dd.mmyy (European). After you key in the date, press !.

Choosing Calculation Methods

When you choose the chain (Chn) calculation method, the calculator solves problems in the order that you enter them. (Most financial calculators use Chn.)
For example, when you enter 3 H 2 < 4 N, the Chn answer is 20 (3 + 2 = 5, 5 * 4 = 20).
Using AOSé (algebraic operating system), the calculator solves problems according to the standard rules of algebraic hierarchy, computing multiplication and division operations before addition and subtraction operations. (Most scientific calculators use AOS.)
For example, when you enter 3 H 2 < 4 N, the AOS answer is 11 (2 Q 4 = 8; 3 + 8 = 11).

Resetting Default Values

To reset default values for all of the calculator formats, press & z with one of the formats displayed.
Overview of Calculator Operations 5

Resetting the Calculator

Resetting the calculator:
Clears the display, all 10 memories, any unfinished calculations, and all worksheet data.
Restores all default settings
Returns operation to the standard-calculator mode
Because the calculator includes alternative methods that let you clear data selectively, use reset carefully to avoid losing data needlessly. (See “Clearing Calculator Entries and Memories” on page 6.)For example, you might reset the calculator before using it for the first time, when starting a new calculation, or when having difficulty operating the calculator and other possible solutions do not work. (See “In Case of Difficulty” on page 100.)

Time-Value-of-Money and Amortization Worksheets

Use the Time-Value-of-Money (TVM) variables to solve problems with equal and regular cash flows that are either all inflows or all outflows (for example, annuities, loans, mortgages, leases, and savings).
For cash-flow problems with unequal cash flows, use the Cash Flow worksheet.
After solving a TVM problem, you can use the Amortization worksheet to generate an amortization schedule.
To access a TVM variable, press a TVM key (,, -, ., /, or 0).
To access the prompted Amortization worksheet, press & \.

Specifying Payments Due With Annuities

Use END/BGN to specify whether the transaction is an ordinary annuity or an annuity due.
•Set
END for ordinary annuities, in which payments occur at the end
of each payment period. (This category includes most loans.)
•Set BGN for annuities due, in which payments occur at the beginning of each payment period. (This category includes most leases.)
Note: When you select beginning-of-period payments, the BGN indicator appears. (No indicator appears for END payments.)

Updating P1 and P2

To update P1 and P2 for a next range of payments, press % with P1 or
P2 displayed.

Different Values for BAL and FV

The computed value for BAL following a specified number of payments might be different than the computed value for FV following the same number of payments.
When solving for
BAL, PRN, and INT, the calculator uses the PMT
value rounded to the number of decimal places specified by the decimal format.
When solving for FV, the calculator uses the unrounded value for
PMT.

Entering, Recalling, and Computing TVM Values

To enter a TVM value, key in the value and store it by pressing a TVM key (,, -, ., /, 0).
To display a stored TVM value, press J and a TVM key.
You can enter or recall a value for any of the five TVM variables (N, I/Y,
PV, PMT, or FV) in either the standard calculator mode or a worksheet
mode. The information displayed depends on which mode is selected.
In standard calculator mode, the calculator displays the variable label, the = sign, and the value entered or recalled.
24 Time-Value-of-Money and Amortization Worksheets
In worksheet modes the calculator displays only the value you enter or recall, although any variable label previously displayed remains displayed.
Note: You can tell that the displayed value is not assigned to the displayed variable, because the = indicator is not displayed.

Uneven and Grouped Cash Flows

Uneven Cash Flows

The Cash Flow worksheet analyzes unequal cash flows over equal time periods. Cash-flow values can include both inflows (cash received) and outflows (cash paid out).
All cash-flow problems start with an initial cash flow labeled CFo. CFo is always a known, entered value.

Grouped Cash Flows

Cash-flow problems can contain cash flows with unique values as well as consecutive cash flows of equal value.
Although you must enter unequal cash flows separately, you can enter groups of consecutive, equal cash flows simultaneously using the variable.

Computing Cash Flows

The calculator solves for these cash-flow values:
Net present value (
NPV) is the total present value of all cash flows,
including inflows (cash received) and outflows (cash paid out). A positive NPV value indicates a profitable investment.
Net future value ( positive
Payback (
NFV value also indicates a profitable investment.
PB) is the time required to recover the initial cost of an
NFV) is the total future value of all cash flows. A
investment, disregarding the present value of the cash inflows (time value of money).
Discounted payback (
DPB) is the time required to recover the initial
cost of an investment using the present value of the cash inflows (time value of money).
Internal rate of return (IRR) is the interest rate at which the net present value of the cash flows is equal to 0.
Modified internal rate of return (MOD) considers the reinvestment of cash when solving for IRR.

IRR, the calculator performs a series of complex,
IRR solutions depends on the number of sign
When a sequence of cash flows has no sign changes, no
IRR solution
exists. The calculator displays Error 5.
When a sequence of cash flows has only one sign change, only one
IRR solution exists, which the calculator displays.
When a sequence of cash flows has two or more sign changes:
At least one solution exists.
As many solutions can exist as there are sign changes.
When more than one solution exists, the calculator displays the one closest to zero. Because the displayed solution has no financial meaning, you should use caution in making investment decisions based on an
IRR computed for a cash-flow stream with more than
one sign change.

Example: Value of a Lease with Uneven Payments

A lease with an uneven payment schedule usually accommodates seasonal or other anticipated fluctuations in the lessee’s cash position.
A 36-month lease has the following payment schedule and beginning-of­period payments.
Number of Months Payment Amount
4$0
8 $5000
3$0
Cash Flow Worksheet 49
Number of Months Payment Amount
9 $6000
2$0
10 $7000
If the required earnings rate is 10% per 12-month period with monthly compounding:
What is the present value of these lease payments?
What even payment amount at the beginning of each month would result in the same present value?
Because the cash flows are uneven, use the Cash Flow worksheet to determine the net present value of the lease.

Computing NPV

The cash flows for the first four months are stated as a group of four $0 cash flows. Because the lease specifies beginning-of-period payments, you must treat the first cash flow in this group as the initial investment
CFo) and enter the remaining three cash flows on the cash flow screens

Term Definition
Call Date A callable bond can be retired by the issuing agency
before the maturity date. The call date for such a bond is printed in the bond contract.
Coupon Payment
Coupon Rate The annual interest rate printed on the bond.
Dollar Price Price of the security expressed in terms of dollars per
Par (Face) Value The value printed on the bond.
Premium Bond A bond that sells for an amount greater than the par
Discount Bond A bond selling for less than the par value.
Redemption Date
Redemption Value

value.
The date on which the issuing agency retires the bond. This date can be the date of maturity or, for a callable bond, the call date.
The amount paid to the owner of a bond when retired. If the bond is redeemed at the maturity date, the redemption value is the par value printed on the bond. If the bond is redeemed at a call date, the redemption value is the bond’s par value plus any call premium. The calculator treats the redemption value in terms of dollars per $100 of par value.
Settlement Date The date on which a bond is exchanged for funds.
Yield to Maturity
The rate of return earned from payments of principal and interest, with interest compounded semiannually at the stated yield rate. The yield to maturity takes into account the amount of premium or discount, if any, and the time value of the investment.

Entering Data Points

You can enter up to 50 (x,y) data points.
If you press # or " to move through the portion of the worksheet that displays results without entering data points, the calculator will display an error.
66 Statistics Worksheet
When you enter data for one-variable statistics, Xnn represents the value and Ynn specifies the number of occurrences (frequency).
When you enter a value for Xnn, the value for Ynn defaults to 1.

Analyzing One-Variable Statistics

To analyze one-variable statistics, select 1-V. Only values for n, v, Sx, sX,
X, and GX
G

are computed and displayed for one-variable statistics.

Analyzing Two-Variable Statistics

You can choose from among these four regression-analysis methods:
•LIN
Ln
EXP
PWR

Computing Values Automatically

Except for the predicted X' and Y' values, the calculator computes and displays values for statistics variables automatically when you access them.

Using X' and Y' for Regression Predictions

To use the X' and Y' variables for regression predictions, you either can enter a value for X' to compute Y' or enter a value for Y' to compute X'.

Regression Models

For two-variable data, the Statistics worksheet uses four regression models for curve fitting and forecasting.
Model Formula Restrictions
LIN
Ln
EXP
PWR
The calculator interprets the X value as the independent variable and the
Y value as the dependent variable.
The calculator computes the statistical results using these transformed values:
LIN uses X and Y.
Statistics Worksheet 67
Y = a + b X None
Y = a + b ln(X) All X values > zero
Y = a b
Y = a X
x
b
All Y values > zero
All X and Y values > zero
Ln uses ln(X) and Y.
EXP uses X and ln(Y).
PWR uses ln(X) and ln(Y).
The calculator determines the values for a and b that create the line or curve that best fits the data.

Correlation Coefficient

The calculator also determines r, the correlation coefficient, which measures the goodness of fit of the equation with the data. Generally:
•The closer
•The closer r is to zero, the worse the fit.
r is to 1 or -1, the better the fit.

Entering Statistical Data

Because the Statistics worksheet lets you enter and display up to 50 data points, and then stores the values until you clear the worksheet or change the values, you probably will not have to perform every step for each Statistics calculation.
1. To select the data-entry portion of the Statistics worksheet, press & j. X01 is displayed along with any previous value.
2. To clear the worksheet, press & z.
3. Key in a value for X01 and press !.
For one-variable data, X01 is the first data point.
For two-variable data, X01 is the first X value.
4. To display the Y01 variable, press #.
5. Key in a value for Y01 and press !.
For one-variable data, you can enter the number of times the X
value occurs (frequency).
The default value is 1.
For two-variable data, enter the first Y value.
6. To display the next X variable, press #.
7. Repeat steps 3 through 5 until you enter all of the data points.
Note: To easily scroll up or down through a range of variables, press and hold # or ".

Days between Dates

With the Date worksheet, you can enter or compute a date within the range January 1, 1950, through December 31, 2049.

Actual/actual day-count method

Note: The method assumes the actual number of days per month and
per year.
DBD (days between dates) = number of days II - number of days I
Number of Days I
