Variables used in financial calculations Financial calculations use multiple variables. By entering known values into variables, you can obtain unknown values. Variables used in financial calculations are categorized into the following two types, depending on the entry method. TVM variables: Variables that are used in the TVM solver. These include N, I/Y, PV, PMT and FV. You can store, recall or calculate values directly using the corresponding keys. Listed financial variables: Variables that are organized into lists in different categories. These variables can be accessed using the z/i cursor keys in each calculation. P/Y and C/Y in the TVM solver are of this type of variable. Variables shared among calculations Financial variables are specific to the type of calculation they are used in. Values are stored in these variables and recalled as required. Some variables are shared (in the memory area) among calculations. If you change the value of a variable in one calculation, the value will change in all the other calculations as well. The following list shows the variables shared between calculations. While calculating, be aware of the values stored in these variables.
