YouCanDoIt

Hello all,
I need some help actually to use the TI BA II calculator a little bit better. I am trying to solve the effective annual rate problems and my calculator is not set to 4 decimal so basically i cannot get the rate to the 4th digit which gets really crucial in these calculations.

Can someone help please. What is the normal to use? 4 decimal or 2 decimal?

Thanks in advance, This forum has been great help.

i left my calculator set to 4 decimals on the test. i can remember specifically if i had to use all four or not, but it definitely will not hurt you.
