Time value of money and financial calculator tutorials
In the previous section we looked at the basic time value of money keys and how to use them to calculate present and future value of lump sums. In this section we will take a look at how to use the HP 17BII to calculate the present and future values of regular annuities and annuities due. A regular annuity is…
The HP 17B is a fairly easy to use financial calculator that will serve you well in all finance courses. The 17BII can operate in either RPN (reverse polish notation) or algebraic modes. RPN is better in most cases, so I suggest that you choose that mode if you understand RPN. This tutorial will demonstrate how to use the financial…
In the previous section we looked at the basic time value of money keys and how to use them to calculate present and future value of lump sums. In this section we will take a look at how to use the HP 10B to calculate the present and future values of regular annuities and annuities due. A regular annuity is…
One of the key variables in choosing any investment is the expected rate of return. We try to find assets that have the best combination of risk and return. In this section we will see how to calculate the rate of return on a bond investment. If you are comfortable using the TVM Solver, then this will be a simple…
In the previous section we looked at the basic time value of money functions and how to use them to calculate present and future value of lump sums. In this section we will take a look at how to use Excel to calculate the present and future values of regular annuities and annuities due. A regular annuity is a series…
Excel (and other spreadsheet programs) is the greatest financial calculator ever made. There is more of a learning curve than a regular financial calculator, but it is much more powerful. This tutorial will demonstrate how to use Excel’s financial functions to handle basic time value of money problems using the same examples as in the calculator tutorials. I will keep…
In the previous section we looked at the basic time value of money keys and how to use them to calculate present and future value of lump sums. In this section we will take a look at how to use the HP 12C to calculate the present and future values of regular annuities and annuities due. A regular annuity is…
The HP 12C is a fairly easy to use financial calculator that will serve you well in all finance courses. Actually, its very easy if you already know RPN (reverse polish notation — a much better way to enter data into a calculator than the algebraic method that you are probably familiar with). This tutorial will demonstrate how to use…
Many, perhaps most, time value of money problems in the real world involve other than annual time periods. For example, most consumer loans (e.g., mortgages, car loans, credit cards, etc.) require monthly payments. All of the examples in the previous pages have used annual time periods for simplicity. On this page, I’ll show you how easy it is to deal…

The Hewlett Packard 20b Business Consultant is an easy to use, and inexpensive, financial calculator that will serve you well in all finance courses. This tutorial will demonstrate how to use the financial functions to handle time value of money problems and make financial math easy. I will keep the examples rather elementary, but understanding the basics is all that…
Uneven Cash Flow Streams In the previous section we looked at the basic time value of money keys and how to use them to calculate present and future value of lump sums and regular annuities. In this section we will take a look at how to use the TI 84 Plus to calculate the present and future values of uneven…
Part 2 of a TI-83 calculator tutorial on calculating money value over time. It covers how to find present and future values of annuities (regular payments) and lump sums using the built-in TVM Solver app. The tutorial explains different annuity types (regular and due) and how to solve for missing variables like payment amount, interest rate, or number of periods. It also touches on perpetuities (infinite payments) and how to approximate their present value with the calculator.
This is the first part of a TI-83 calculator tutorial on performing time value of money calculations. It covers finding future and present values of lump sums using the built-in TVM Solver app. The tutorial explains how to enter data considering the calculator's cash flow sign convention and solve for missing variables like the number of periods or interest rate. It also teaches how to adjust the calculator's decimal places for better viewing.
In this tutorial we will see how to amortize a fixed-rate loan using the TI BAII Plus Professional calculator from Texas Instruments. Specifically, we will see how to calculate the amount of principal and interest for any particular payment, or range of payments. For example, you may wish to know how much your principal or interest payments will be for…
