ICNV
Interest Rate Conversions
The interest conversion (ICNV) menu converts between nominal and
effective interest rates. To compare investments with different compounding
periods, their nominal interest rates are converted to effective interest
rates. This allows you, for example, to compare a savings account that pays
interest quarterly with a bond that pays interest semiannually.
·
The nominal rate is the stated
annual interest rate compounded periodically, such as 18% per year compounded
monthly.
·
The effective rate is the rate that,
compounded only once (that is, annually), would produce the same final value as
the nominal rate. A nominal annual rate of 18% compounded monthly equals an
effective annual rate of 19.56%.
When the compounding period for a given nominal rate is one year, then
that nominal annual rate is the same as its effective annual rate.
Usage:
Periodic compounding:
Continuous compounding:

CFLO
Cash Flow calculations.
Usage:
|
Menu |
Description |
|
[CALC] |
Accesses the CALC menu to
calculate TOTAL, IRR% and NPV |
|
[EDIT] |
Edit a existing set of data |
|
[NEW] |
Start a new set of data |
|
|
|
|
[TOTAL] |
Calculates the sum of the cash flows. |
|
[IRR%] |
Calculates
the internal rate of return - the interest (discount) rate at
which the net present value of the cash flows equals zero. |
|
[I%] |
Prompts for the periodic interest rate, expressed as a percentage |
|
[NPV] |
Given I%, calculates the net
present value
- the present value of a series of cash flows. |
Creating a Cash-flow list
Press [NEW] for starting a new
Cash-flow list. An existing list is overwritten with a new, empty list. The
Cash-flow list is stored into variable "CF".
When ST-X containing a [N x 1]
matrix, this matrix is stored into variable "CF" and can be used for the
cash-flow calculations.
Press [EDIT] for edit the Cash-flow
list. This executes the HP42S internal Matrix editor. Now you can enter cash
flows into the Cash-flow list.
Use [INSR] (insert Row), or [GROW]
on the second page of the Matrix editor menu for inserting new cash flows.
Exit the Matrix Editor by pressing
[R/S]
Cash-flow calculations:
Once you have entered a list of cash flows, you can calculate the
following values in the CALC menu.
1.
Sum (TOTAL), Calculates the sum of
the cash flows.
2.
Internal rate of return (IRR%). This
is a periodic rate of return. To calculate an annual nominal rate when the
period is not a year, multiply the IRR% by the number of periods per year.
3.
Net present value (NPV) for a
specified, periodic interest rate, I%.
See the "HP17BII+ Financial calculator Owner's manual" for more
information about Cash-flow calculations. There are also some examples in that
manual.
DEPRC
Depreciation
The DEPRC (depreciation) program calculates
depreciation values and remaining depreciable values one year a time.
Usage:
[Arrow Up] / [Arrow Down]
|
Menu |
Description |
|
[BASIS] |
Stores the depreciable cost basis
of the asset at acquisition. |
|
[SALV] |
Stores the salvage value of the
asset at the end of its useful life. If there is no salvage value, set SALV=0. |
|
[LIFE] |
Stores the expected useful life
(in whole years) of the asset. |
|
ACRS% |
Stores the appropriate Accelerated
Cost Recovery System percentage from the published ACRS tables. |
|
ACRS |
Calculates the ACRS deduction based on BASIS and
ACRS%. (The values in SALV, LIFE, FACT%, and YR#
do not matter.) |
|
|
|
|
YR# |
Stores the number of the year for
which you want the depreciation (1, 2, etc.). |
|
FACT% |
Stores the declining-balance
factor as a percentage of the straight-line rate. This is for the DB
method only. For example, for a rate 1¼ times (125%) the straight-line
rate, enter 125. |
|
DB |
Calculates the declining-balance
depreciation for the year. |
|
SOYD |
Calculates
the sum-of-the-years'-digits depreciation for the year. |
|
SL |
Calculates the straight-line depreciation for the
year. |
Calculate the depreciation for an
asset:
- Define the characteristics of the asset:
Key in the cost basis and press [BASIS]
Key on the salvage value and press [SALV] if there is no salvage value, enter zero.
Key in the useful life and press [LIFE] - Press [Arrow up] of [Arrow Down] for the rest of
the DEPRC menu.
- Key in the number for the year of depreciation
you want to calculate and press [YR#]
- If you are using the declining-balance method,
enter the DB factor (a percentage) and press [FACT%]
- Press [DB], [SOYD] or [SL] to calculate the
appropriate depreciation.
- ST-X now containing the Depreciation, ST-Y now
containing the remaining depreciable value (basis - salvage value - accumulated
depreciation)
- To calculate the depreciation for another year,
just change YR# and press [DB], [SOYD] or [SL] again.
The
ACRS Method
To calculate the amount of tax deduction under the U.S. Accelerated Cost
Recovery System:
1.
Enter the cost basis of the asset
and press [BASIS].
2.
The Internal Revenue Service
publishes tables that list the percentage of an asset's basis that can be
deducted each year of its prescribed life. Look up that value, enter it, and
press [ACRS%].
3.
Press [ACRS]
to calculate the value of the deduction.
See the "HP17BII+ Financial
calculator Owner's manual" for more information about depreciation. There are
also some examples in that manual.
%CALC

(OLD and NEW), expressed as a percentage (%CH) of OLD. |
|
Percent of total [%TOTL] |
The portion that one number (PART)
is of another (TOTAL), expressed as a percentage (%T). |
