WHICH CALCULATOR SHOULD ONE GO FOR THE T11 STUDENT OR PROFESSIONAL FOR LEVEL 1 CFA作者: MonkeyBusiness 时间: 2011-7-11 18:34
Only two calculator models are authorized for use during the exams:
1. Texas Instruments BA II Plus (including BA II Plus Professional)
2. Hewlett Packard 12C (including the HP 12C Platinum)
Elan guide recommends using TI BA II Plus.作者: manasib 时间: 2011-7-11 18:34
Both have their fans. I think the TI BA II plus is easier to work with.作者: Siddimaula 时间: 2011-7-11 18:34
I believ the PRO has certain addnl functions like computing DPB- disc payback which can come in handy作者: ftwcfa 时间: 2011-7-11 18:34
I have been using student but now that i know some of features in professional - it sounds better作者: LokiDog2 时间: 2011-7-11 18:34
I am not sure about the difference between TI BA II plus and the professional, but I have a TI Professional. I love it.. very easy to use and calculates very fast. I also have a HP12C. it is very hard to use IMO... I could never get used to the button lay out and input method...esp the NPV, TI displays Cash flows as C01,C02, C03 et(. very helpful when you are inputing mutilple cash flows) where as HP doesnt. I also think HP takes much longer in calculation than TI. IF any one is looking to buy a financial calculator I would suggest TI BA II+pro.
