CLEAR G Clears
contents of financial
registers (page 33).
× Sets payment
mode to Begin for
compound interest
calculations involving
payments (page 37).
 Sets payment
mode to End for
compound interest
calculations involving
payments (page 37).
Ï Calculates simple
interest (page 33).
w Stores or computes
number of periods in
financial problem
(page 32).
A Multiplies a
number in displayed
X-register by 12 and
stores the resulting
value in the n-register
(page 39).
¼ Stores or computes
interest rate per
compounding period
(page 32).
C Divides number in
displayed X-register by
12 and stores the
resulting value in the
I-register (page 39).
$ Stores or computes
the present value (that
is, the initial cash flow)
of a financial problem
(page 32).
P Stores or
computes payment
amount (page 32).
M Stores or computes
future value (final cash
flow) of a financial
problem (page 32).
! Amortizes x
number of periods
using values stored in
PMT, i, PV, and the
display. Updates
values in PV and n
(page 54).
l Calculates the net
present value of up to
20 uneven cash flows
and initial investment
using values stored
with J, K, and
a (page 58).
L Calculates the
internal rate of return
(yield) for up to 20
uneven cash flows and
initial investment using
values stored with J,
K, and a
(page 63).
J Initial cash flow.
Stores contents of
displayed X-register in
R
0
, initializes n to zero,
sets N
0
to 1. Used at
the beginning of a
discounted cash flow
problem (page 58).
K Cash flow j.
Stores the contents of
X-register in R
j
,
increments n by 1, and
sets N
j
to 1. Used for
all cash flows except
the initial cash flow in
a discounted cash flow
problem (page 58).
V Calculates
depreciation using
straight-line method.
(page 68).
E Calculates bond
price, given desired
yield to maturity
(page 67).
S Calculates yield to
maturity, given bond
price (page 67).
a Stores the number
(from 1 to 99) of times
each cash flow occurs
as N
j
. Assumes 1
unless otherwise
specified (page 61).
Ý Calculates
depreciation using
sum-of-the-years-digits
method (page 68).
# Calculates
depreciation using
declining-balance
method (page 68).
Statistics
CLEAR² Clears
statistical storage
registers R
1
through R
6
and stack registers
(page 76).
_ Accumulates
statistics using numbers
from X- and Y-registers
in storage registers R
1
through R
6
(page 76).
^ Cancels effect of
numbers from X- and
Y-registers in storage
registers R
1
through R
6
(page 77).
