It's y2k compliant!

Date of Review:  Aug 14, 2000
Review: About a year ago, I got the responsibility to test all the office appliances for y2k compliance. SEC ruled that everything (including microwaves, phones and wrist watches) had to be tested. We even had to have backup people to start working if a...

financial businessman rates industry standard calculator

Date of Review:  Mar 21, 2004
The Bottom Line: Don't waste your money. It's not as good as newer calculators. I broke my budget to get this one and it just wasn't worth it.
Review: I am a mortgage broker. I have worked at 3 different mortgage companies and I have seen many trainees learn calculations with this calculator. It is a mortgage industry standard. I bought one for myself about a year and a half ago.

I am...

HP 12C algebraic mode and '=' sign

Date of Review:  Feb 27, 2007
Review: I don't know how all the previous reviews missed this but you can choose either Algebraic or RPN and the HP 12C does have an = sign (it's on the enter key). The manual which comes with the HP 12C gives examples in both RPN and Algebraic modes.

Still the best Fin Calculator

Date of Review:  Apr 16, 2006
The Bottom Line: If you need a financial calculator. Get this one. You won't be disappointed. It will last longer than your interest in finance.
Review: I used this calculation for my MBA program (2004-2005) while everyone else in the class was using Excel. This calculator took me through two accounting classes and three financial analysis classes. Forget the RPN verses algebratic input, you'll get...

Excellent RPN calc. - Much nicer than 33S

Date of Review:  Oct 20, 2006
The Bottom Line: Buy it for features, ease of use. Learn RPN if you have time.
Review: Well, I bit the bullet and bought a 12C from Samson Cables. This particular version was the Platinum Anniversary Edition. My rationale for purchasing it was that I have worn out several calculators in my day job, and I was not going to move to a TI...

I Cant Use It....Imagine That

Date of Review:  Oct 22, 2001
The Bottom Line: Get it...its cool. Although, mine is brown...and brown is SO out of style.....so, try to find it in black.
Review: OK, so I drop my PreMed major. Well, it dropped me actually. I kinda failed Chemistry and Calculus, the first two required classes. So, I took that as a hint and moved on. Now, I am a Finance major. At one of the top 20 biz schools in the US (mom,...

HP12C Financial Calculator

Date of Review:  Feb 14, 2007
The Bottom Line: Buy the HP12C if you are an MBA student or in the finance industry. It will really help if you can figure out how to use it.
Review: If you are an MBA student or would like to pretend to be one, then the HP12C Financial Calculator is the one for you. You are almost looked down upon in school and the finance industry if you don't own one of these puppies. This seems to be a pretty...

HP 12c Rocks

Date of Review:  Aug 27, 2005
Review: This is a fairly simple but standard calculator used for basic financial stuff like NPV and time value of money. It will save you thousands on your next mortgage and probably that much on your next car deal if you just figure how to compute...

THE Standard Calculator for Finance Professionals

Date of Review:  Jul 31, 2004
The Bottom Line: If you're in the finance industry, you probably already own this. If you're not, buy something else. This is NOT for amateurs or high school students.
Review: The Hewlett Packard HP 12C calculator has been in production for over twenty years. Over that period, it has become the most popular calculator for finance professionals. While not the most powerful of calculators--the HP 17 and 19 series both...

"High Priced" 12C

Date of Review:  Sep 26, 2001
The Bottom Line: This is *the* classic financial calculator, but it's also a dinosaur. You'd be better off buying a modern financial calculator like the HP17BII.
Review: The 12C is HP's best-selling calculator, possibly the most successful calculator ever. It was first sold about two decades ago and the electronics have never been upgraded. The display uses 7 segment LEDs to show each digit, whereas the newer HPs...
