Hi guys, I'm new to the forum.
My calculator (TI BA Plus2) is playing up with its TVM function and I'm wondering if it is a settings issue or if I have just forgotten some basic thing of how to use it from level 1 and 2. I changed the battery, cleared tvm and cleared memory.
I'm attempting a contingent immunization question and entered the following:
PV = 93,000,000
N=6
I/Y=4.25%
PMT=0
when I then CPT FV, I get -94,993,830.9
This is obviously wrong, the answer should be 93m*(1.0425)^6=119,382,132
Can anyone spot what is going wrong?

Clear your TVM and WRK memories... CLR TVM and CLR WORK作者: HuskyGrad2010 时间: 2011-10-5 14:42
Thanks, but as mentioned in my post I cleared both before doing the calc.
Also, I checked whether the calc is in 'end mode' and it is作者: stalkey 时间: 2011-10-5 14:44
likely user error...
like those IT guys say, the problem likely lies between the keyboard and the chair...作者: luda002 时间: 2011-10-5 14:46
I forget how to use all that stuff, try looking up a manual online.
Edit: Or an even better solution, try posting on the CFA Level I or CFA Level II forum on the top of the page here. Those guys'll know it inside and out.
