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.

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.)

Universal Power ;  
Press ; to raise the displayed positive number to any power (for  
-5  
(1/3)  
example, 2 or 2  
).  
Note: Because the reciprocal of an even number (such as, 1/2, 1/4, 1/6) is  
a complex number, you can only raise a negative number to an integer  
power or the reciprocal of an odd number.  
Overview of Calculator Operations

Parentheses 9 :  
Use parentheses to control the order in which the calculator evaluates a  
numeric expression in division, multiplication, powers, roots, and  
logarithm calculations. The calculator includes up to 15 levels of  
parentheses and up to 8 pending operations.  
Note: You do not have to press : for expressions ending in a series of  
closed parentheses. Pressing N closes parentheses automatically,  
evaluates the expression, and displays the final result. To view  
intermediate results, press : once for each open parenthesis.  
Factorial & g  
The number for which you compute a factorial must be a positive integer  
less than or equal to 69.  
Random Numbers & a  
The calculator generates a random real number between zero and one  
(0<x<1) from a uniform distribution.  
You can repeat a sequence of random numbers by storing a seed value in  
the random number generator. Seed values help you recreate  
experiments by generating the same series of random numbers.  
To store a seed value, key in an integer greater than zero and press D  
& a.  
Combinations & s  
The calculator computes the number of combinations of n items taken r  
at a time. Both the n and r variables must be greater than or equal to 0.  
n!  
nCr = -----------------------------  
(n r)! × r!  
Permutations & m  
The calculator computes the number of permutations of n items taken r  
at a time. Both the n and r variables must be greater than or equal to 0.  
n!  
nPr = ------------------  
(n r)!  
Rounding & o  
The calculator computes using the rounded, displayed form of a number  
instead of the internally stored value.  
10  
Overview of Calculator Operations  
 
           
For example, working in the Bond worksheet, you might want to round a  
computed selling price to the nearest penny (two decimal places) before  
continuing your calculation.  
Note: The calculator stores values to an accuracy of up to 13 digits. The  
decimal format setting rounds the displayed value but not the  
unrounded, internally stored value. (See “Choosing the Number of  
Decimal Places Displayed” on page 4.)  
Scientific Notation ;  
When you compute a value in the standard-decimal format that is either  
too large or small to be displayed, the calculator displays it in scientific  
notation, that is, a base value (or mantissa), followed by a blank space,  
followed by an exponent.  
With AOS™ selected, you can press ; to enter a number in scientific  
notation. (See “Choosing Calculation Methods” on page 5.)  
For example, to enter 3 Q 103, key in 3 < 10 ; 3.

Using Worksheets: Tools for Financial Solutions  
The calculator contains worksheets with embedded  
formulas to solve specific problems. You apply settings or  
assign known values to worksheet variables and then  
compute the unknown value. Changing the values lets you  
ask what if questions and compare results.  
Except for TVM variables, accessed in the standard-  
calculator mode, all variables are prompted.  
For example, to assign values to amortization variables, you  
must first press & \ to access the Amortization  
worksheet.  
Each worksheet is independent of the others: operations in a worksheet  
do not affect variables in other worksheets. When you exit a worksheet

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 & \.

Using the TVM and Amortization Variables  
Because the calculator stores values assigned to the TVM variables until  
you clear or change them, you should not have to perform all steps each  
time you work a problem.  
To assign a value to a TVM variable, key in a number and press a TVM  
key (,, -, ., /, 0).  
To change the number of payments (P/Y), press & [, key in a  
number, and press !. To change the compounding periods (C/Y),  
press & [ #, key in a number, and press !.  
To change the payment period (END/BGN), press & ], and then  
press & V.  
To compute a value for the unknown variable, press %, and then  
press the key for the unknown variable.

Clearing the Unused Variable  
For problems using only four of the five TVM variables, enter a value of  
zero for the unused variable.  
For example, to determine the present value (PV) of a known future  
value (FV) with a known interest rate (I/Y) and no payments, enter 0 and  
press PMT.  
Entering Positive and Negative Values for Outflows and  
Inflows  
Enter negative values for outflows (cash paid out) and positive values for  
inflows (cash received).  
Note: To enter a negative value, press S after entering the number. To  
change a negative value to positive, press S.

Entering Values for I/Y, P/Y, and C/Y  
Enter I/Y as the nominal interest rate. The TVM worksheet  
automatically converts I/Y to a per period rate based on the values of  
P/Y and C/Y.  
Entering a value for P/Y automatically enters the same value for C/Y.  
(You can change C/Y.)  
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.

invested (outflows) as a negative value.  
You must enter cash inflows as positive values and cash outflows as  
negative values.  
The calculator displays computed inflows as positive values and  
computed outflows as negative values.  
Generating an Amortization Schedule

Answer: The present value of the cash flows is $23,171.23, which exceeds  
the machine’s cost by $171.23. This is a profitable investment.  
Note: Although variable cash flow payments are not equal (unlike  
annuity payments), you can solve for the present value by treating the  
cash flows as a series of compound interest payments.  
The present value of variable cash flows is the value of cash flows  
occurring at the end of each payment period discounted back to the  
beginning of the first cash flow period (time zero).  
Example: Computing Present Value of a Lease  
With Residual Value  
The Peach Bright Company wants to purchase a machine currently leased  
from your company. You offer to sell it for the present value of the lease  
discounted at an annual interest rate of 22% compounded monthly. The  
machine has a residual value of $6500 with 46 monthly payments of  
$1200 remaining on the lease. If the payments are due at the beginning  
of each month, how much should you charge for the machine?

Cash Flow Worksheet  
 
   
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 Fnn  
variable.  
Entering Cash Flows  
Cash flows consist of an initial cash flow (CFo) and up to 32 additional  
cash flows (C01-C32), each of which can have a unique value. You must  
enter the number of occurrences (up to 9,999), or frequency (F), for each  
additional cash flow (C01-C32).  
The calculator displays positive values for inflows (cash received) and  
negative values for outflows (cash paid out).  
To clear the Cash Flow worksheet, press & z.  
To enter cash flows:  
1. Press '. The initial cash-flow value (CFo) appears.  
2. Key in a value for CFo and press !.  
3. To select an additional cash-flow variable, press #. The C01 value  
appears.  
4. To change C01, key in a value and press !.

8. Repeat steps 4 through 7 for all remaining cash flows and  
frequencies.  
9. To review entries, press # or ".  
Deleting Cash Flows  
When you delete a cash flow, the calculator decreases the number of  
subsequent cash flows automatically.  
The DEL indicator confirms that you can delete a cash flow.  
1. Press # or " until the cash flow you want to delete appears.  
2. Press & W. The cash flow you specified and its frequency is  
deleted.  
Inserting Cash Flows  
When you insert a cash flow, the calculator increases the number of the  
following cash flows, up to the maximum of 32.  
Note: The INS indicator confirms that you can insert a cash flow.

1. Press # or " to select the cash flow where you want to insert the  
new one. For example, to insert a new second cash flow, select C02.  
2. Press & X.  
3. Key in the new cash flow and press !. The new cash flow is  
entered at C02.  
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 (NFV) is the total future value of all cash flows. A  
positive NFV value also indicates a profitable investment.  
Payback (PB) is the time required to recover the initial cost of an  
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.  
Computing NPV, NFV, PB, and DPB  
1. Press ( to display the current discount rate (I).  
2. Key in a value and press !.  
3. Press # to display the current net present value (NPV).  
4. To compute the net present value for the series of cash flows  
entered, press %.  
5. To compute the net future value (NFV), press #. The NFV value  
appears.  
6. To compute payback (PB), press #. The PB value appears.  
7. To compute the payback discounted over time (DBP), press #. The  
DBP value appears.
