This book was too basic, and it hopped around too much. I am still looking for a good "how to" book on using these calculators. I guess I would have preferred a workbook of problems. Perhaps a workbook would help me harness the full power of a financial calculator.
Rating: - Tries to cover too many bases.
Every book is worth something, this one included. However, you need to get specific in a book as to the calculating device covered. In this book the author seems to be trying to expand her market by covering way too many devices, devices that are in conflict with each other as to keystrokes and the like. And, we dont need anyone to tell us how to make "Effective Use of a Financial Calculator": nobody has "the" answers on this point. If you have the HP-12C--a very competent device--, consider Mr. Tirone's "Professional Real Estate Problem Solving Using the HP-12C" as well as Mr. Coffin's "Easy Course" on the HP-12C. If you use the HP-17BII (I have this calculator and love it) and if you work in real estate or just want to strut some things on the device, consider Mr. Tirone's "Professional Real Estate... HP-17BII" along with Mr. Coffin's "Easy Course" on the HP-17BII. As far as trying to master or even learn one of the TI financial calculators, "get real": save your $$ and your time: get the HP-12C or the HP-17BII or possibly the HP-19BII. You will never go wrong with any of these devices. Diane "O"
Rating: - Word of Warning
I purchased this book with the intention of enhancing, believe it or not, my efficiency on a financial calculator.
DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK UNLESS YOU HAVE A HP 10B, HP 17BII OR A TI BAII PLUS.
I didn't so it was fairly ineffective, you can pick up little tips here and there but you are better of having a good read of the calculators owners manual.
Rating: - This book is average at best.
This book is average at best. I was expecting to see more visual aids (ie graphs, etc) to help explain the formulas. It's not real bad and you can find all of this information on the Internet.
