its not actually a “financial”calculator but i looked in the manual and it says it has finance functions like amortization, etc.

Will this work for a finance class? or do i actually need to buy the financial calculator?

    That will probably work. The HP-12C is still the standard, though.

    Ask your professor. We can’t possibly tell you whether that type of calculator will be acceptable for the type of work being done in your class.

    Bought my first HP12C in 1977. Am on my second one now (over 18 years old). Wouldn’t be caught without it.

    Why not buy something you’ll use and enjoy for years?
