HP 12C Platinum Calculator

Product Information

Once you’ve developed basic knowledge of RPN, you may find its format more practical particularly for TVM problems on the exams. Research has also shown that the HP 12C could be faster and more accurate for candidates to use. Which HP12C calculator function did you find particularly useful? Do you have further tips to share? Let us know your comments below! The HP calculators Voyager series consisted of five models, some of which were manufactured in several variants (with years of production):

R0… R9/ CF0… CF9, R.0… R.9/ CF10… CF19) + 5 ( n, i, PV, PMT, FV/ CF20) + 5 ( X, Y, Z, T, LAST X) [3] While the TI BA II plus may require more keystrokes to perform calculations like the NPV, the extra 0.5 seconds longer it takes to complete the computation will not make any difference in your exam.

Easy fix, HP. Make us happy to show off that we have this app, and let us inspire others to buy it from you when they see us use it. Less exam-based support. Because the BA II Plus calculator is much more widely-used among CFA candidates, this can mean that you may not, for example, get HP12C-specific calculator examples with your provider. You may also find that there are less candidates to ask and discuss any keystroke-related issues you may have. Reverse Polish notation (RPN), also known as Polish postfix notation or postfix notation, is a mathematical notation in which operators follow their operands, in contrast to Polish notation (PN), in which operators precede their operands. The HP Voyager series calculator are keystroke programmable, meaning that it can remember and later execute sequences of keystrokes to solve particular problems of interest to the user. These keystroke programs, in addition to performing any operation normally available on the keyboard, can also make use of conditional and unconditional branching and looping instructions, allowing programs to perform repetitive operations and make decisions. Faster input. Because RPN does not need the user to input parentheses, calculations have been shown to take less time to input with RPN.

In the above example, if you wished to find the IRR, you would key [f] IRRinstead of [f] NPVafter entering all cash flows. Remember to use correct cash flow sign conventions be used (use opposing signs when cash is flowing in vs out), otherwise your answer will not make sense! You can see this as a relatively inexpensive financial calculator that performs all basic financial calculations (e.g., IRR and NPV). This calculator is good enough for any financial course and the CFA exam. Pros No, there isn’t one specifically for Level 1. You can use the same one for all three levels of this exam. 2.

To calculate and store the interest rate with monthly compounding, key in the annual interest rate followed by [g] 12÷. Note that the HP12C automatically converts the interest rate to a decimal. In 2011, the continued popularity of the Voyager series among users prompted SwissMicros (originally called RPN-Calc) to produce a series of credit-card-sized calculators looking like miniature versions of their HP equivalents and running the original HP firmware in an emulator on a modern calculator hardware. The series consisted of the DM10, DM11, DM12, DM15 and DM16. [9] All calculators used the same hardware, but differ in keyboard and firmware (which can be changed with an upgrade port). After the introduction of the larger DM15L, DM41L and DM16L in 2015, the DM11L was added in January 2016 with the DM12L following in February. A limited production run for a DM10L was planned for 2019. [10] [11] See also [ edit ]A final interesting detail is that the horizontal layout and metallic edging came about because the display was found to break when prototype vertical Voyagers were dropped - so the display was placed horizontally - leading to a horizontal layout for the HP-12C - and giving HP their most successful stopgap product ever.
