| zhaojiang | FV=0, N=4, I/Y=15, PMT=3,500 CPT PV=9,992.42 NPV=-$10,000+$9,992.42=-$7.58 |
| thekapila | on BAII 2ND RESET CF0 10000 CF1 3500 F01 = 4 I = 15 CPT NPV = -7.58 |
| julescruis | Whenever cash flow are constant we should use the calculation method presented by zhaojiang as it is quicker |
| mattg | I love my HP12C! Anyone using the BAII, I advise you to throw it in the trash immediately and go get the HP I started on the BAII and it broke so I switched ... MUCH more intuitive, plus the buttons take effort to push so not so many mis-pressed keys! |
| johntan1979 | It's never about which calculator is better but WHOSE hands it is in. |
| jonan203 | jt1979 is right, but i love me some HP12C doggystyle polish action... |
| jlizzy | unsure what required rate of rtn is here? does this indicate how much it will cost to borrow money ($10k)? |
I used your notes and passed ... highly recommended!
