Bonds
Bond calculations, primarily calculating bond price and yield, are performed by
two keys,
]Ñ and ]Ô. These keys permit you to input data or
return results. Pressing
]Û only calculates a result. The other keys used
in bond calculations only permit you to input the data required for the calcula-
tions.
