ADEPR Mode Financial Calculation Variables (VARS)

Variables n, I, PV, and FV are used in the DEPR Mode.

The values of DEPR Mode variables are retained even if you change to another mode. Note, however, that DEPR Mode variables are also used by other modes, so performing an input or calculation operation may change the values assigned to them.

Though DEPR Mode variables are financial calculation variables, they are also used by arithmetic and function operations in the COMP Mode.
