 Sets payment
mode to End for com-
pound interest calcula-
tions involving
payments (page 39).
Ï Calculates simple
interest (page 35).
w Stores or computes
number of periods in
financial problem (page
34).
A Multiplies a number
in displayed X-register
by 12 and stores the
resulting value in the
n-register (page 41).
¼ Stores or computes
interest rate per com-
pounding period (page
34).
C Divides number in
displayed X-register by
12 and stores the result-
ing value in the i-register
(page41).
$ Stores or computes
the present value (that
is, the initial cash flow)
of a financial problem
(page 34).
P Stores or computes
payment amount (page
34).
M Stores or computes
future value (final cash
flow) of a financial prob-
lem (page 34).
! Amortizes x num-
ber of periods using val-
ues 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
30 uneven cash flows
and initial investment
using values stored with
J, K, and a
(page 59).
L Calculates the
internal rate of return
(yield) for up to 30
uneven cash flows and
initial investment using
values stored with J,
K, and a (page 63).
J Initial cash flow.
Stores contents of dis-
played X-register in R ,
0
initializes n to zero, sets
N to 1. Used at the
0
beginning of a dis-
counted cash flow prob-
lem (page 59).
K Cash flow j. Stores
the contents of X-
register in R , incre-
j
ments n by 1, and sets
N to 1. Used for all cash
j
flows except the initial
cash flow in a dis-
counted cash flow prob-
lem (page 59).
V Calculates depreci-
ation 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 68).
a Stores the number
(from 1 to 99) of times
each cash flow occurs
as N . Assumes 1 unless
j
otherwise specified
(page 61).
Ý Calculates depreci-
ation using
sum-of-the-years-digits
method (page 68).
#Calculates deprecia-
tion using declining-bal-
ance method (page 68).
Statistics
CLEAR² Clears statis-
tical storage registers
R through R and stack
1 6
registers (page 76).
_ Accumulates statis-
tics using numbers from
X- and Y-registers in
storage registers R
1
through R (page 76).
6
^ Cancels effect of
numbers from X- and
Y-registers in storage
registers R through R
1 6
(page 77).
Ö Computes mean
(average) of x-values
and y-values using
accumulated statistics
(page 77).
h Computes weighted
average of y-(item) and
x-(weight) values using
accumulated statistics
(page 81).
v Computes sample
standard deviations of x-
and y-values using
accumulated statistics
(page 78).
