Digital camera reviews of HP 10bII Financial Calculator
Digital camera Review: (4/5) 2nd Best Finance Calculator
Summary: 4 Stars
This calculator comes a bit short in function when you compare it to it's father the 17b II+ (HP 17BII+ Financial Calculator, Silver). However, when you do price comparison, this calculator works just fine for a $30 compared to an $80.
Pro(s):
- Good amount of functions (CFLO, PV, IRR, FV, etc.)
- Slim design
- Comes with faux leather case
Con(s):
- None (if you read the manual)
Recommendation(s)/Suggestion(s):
- If you're not a finance major then this is the right calculator for you. This calc isn't the easiest to use; if you can get the HP 17b II+ at a cheap price or borrow it, then please by all means do so.
Overall, this calc got me thru a basic finance course easily.
Digital camera Review: 10B II Hewlett packard caculator
Summary: 2 Stars
I enjoyed this calculator, but I use the 10B a older version. It is just easier to me.Digital camera Review: A Piece of Junk
Summary: 1 Stars
The keys don't respond well, thus when you hit the button for the answer you are looking for, you wonder why it is off or simply wrong,,, because the keys don't respond well. This calculator is a piece of junk.Digital camera Review: A Plus
Summary: 5 Stars
This calculator is better than some of the TI products which are not specialized for financial calculation. I would recommend this to financial professionals.Digital camera Review: A compromise only
Summary: 3 Stars
This calculator is now the most popular among Undergraduate Business Programs. And it is somewhat sufficient to solve textbook problems in introduction to accounting and finance. Functions can be easily explained to those classes. However, once you get into the real finance and investments your professor will want you to purchase the HP 12C instead. That one will be able to solve the more advanced and complex problems and all that more accurately. Once you move on to grad school there is no other option but the HP 12C - or an equivalent calculator by another manufacturer. And you will need that more advanced one at work, too - for all entry level analyst positions in finance and accounting. Unless you have already decided that the pre-requisites in finance and accounting will be the only time when you need a financial calculator, there is really no use to get accustomed to the HP 10B. You might as well purchase the more advanced calculator immediately (and save some money) although it is a little more difficult to use.
