Specifying Payments Due With Annuities
Use
END/BGN to specify whether the transaction is an ordinary annuity or an
annuity due.
Set END for
ordinary annuities
, in which payments occur at the
end
of each
payment period. (This category includes most loans.)
Set BGN for
annuities due
, in which payments occur at the
beginning
of
each payment period. (This category includes most leases.)
Note: When you select beginning-of-period payments, the BGN indicator
appears. (No indicator appears for END payments.)
Updating P1 and P2
To update
P1 and P2 for a next range of payments, press C with P1 or P2
displayed.
Different Values for BAL and FV
The computed value for
BAL following a specified number of payments might
be different than the computed value for FV following the same number of
payments.
When solving for BAL, PRN, and INT, the calculator uses the PMT value
rounded to the number of decimal places specified by the decimal format.
When solving for FV, the calculator uses the unrounded value for PMT.
Entering, Recalling, and Computing TVM Values
To enter a TVM value, key in the value and store it by pressing a TVM key
(,, -, ., /, 0).
To display a stored TVM value, press J and a TVM key.
You can enter or recall a value for any of the five TVM variables (
N, I/Y, PV,
PMT, or FV) in either the standard calculator mode or a worksheet mode. The
information displayed depends on which mode is selected.
In standard calculator mode, the calculator displays the variable label, the
= sign, and the value entered or recalled.
In worksheet modes the calculator displays only the value you enter or
recall, although any variable label previously displayed remains
displayed.
Note: You can tell that the displayed value is not assigned to the displayed
variable, because the = indicator is not displayed.
