Great Book!, Jan 17 2006
By James M. Arrison IV - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Understanding your financial calculator (Dalton PFP series) (Paperback)
From my opinion this is the best book for those of us who are confused on the use of our financial calculator. It is a 100% practical book with 186 pages of step by step keystrokes followed by a 215 question workbook with answers. The book supports the following calculators with their specific keystrokes:
HP 17BII
HP 12C
HP 10BII
TI BA II Plus
Sharp EL 733A
I used this book to prepare for my Certified Financial Planning (CFP) exam and it was perfect. I used the 5th edition version and I'm not sure what has been added since the 4th edition.
