5: Time Value of Money

File name : English-M02-1-040308(Print).doc Print data : 2004/3/9

The time value of money (TVM) menu does many compound-interest
calculations. Specifically, you can use the TVM menu for a series of cash
flows
(money received or money paid) when:

„ The dollar amount is the same for each payment.

*

„ The payments occur at regular intervals.
„ The payment periods coincide with the compounding periods.

Payment mode: the
end of each period

12 payments (or periods)
per year

To second level of TVM

Figure 5-1. The First Level of TVM


The first level of the TVM menu has five menu labels for variables plus

. The

key accesses a second-level menu used to specify

payment conditions (the payment mode) and to call up the AMRT
(amortization) menu.

For situations where the amount of the payment varies, use the CFLO (cash

flows) menu.
