11-1 Financial Application Basic Operations

Each time you select a calculation from the Financial application menu, a new page is added for that calculation.

Each page has input boxes for inputting values and input/calculation boxes that can be used both to input values and display calculation results.

The examples below explain basic operations using the Financial application page.

Example: What is the final value after two years (730 days) of a $3,000 investment earning 5.0% simple interest? Also calculate the final value during the same period for the same investment when the simple interest rate is 3%.

1.On the application menu, tap to start the Financial application.

If this is the first time the application is being started up, the Financial menu window will appear.

2.Tap [Calc(1)] and then [Simple Interest] (or, on the Financial menu window, tap “Simple Interest”).

This will add a new page for performing the calculation (page 1) and display the “Simple Interest” page.

3.Input the following information: Days = 730; I% (annual interest rate) = 5; PV (present value) = −3000.

4.Tap [SI] and then [SFV].

This will display the calculation results for simple interest (SI) and simple future value (SFV = principal + interest).
