Look at the following examples. Your calculator must be in NORMAL mode, and the display should be set to IFKM El in order to get the exact results that we show: Example: Solution: In your furniture business, you like to see about a 95% mark up from your cost to the retail price of each item. A certain couch costs you $455.70. What price do you sell it for? 95 In 455.70 1= w!'In' MI Result: 888.62 As you work through the above solution, you store the mark-up in the MU register by pressing 95 12ndl ri . Then you store the cost in the CST register (455.70 F-I ) and compute the selling price by pressing viii MI . (The IM key always means "compute." Question: What is the margin on each of these couches that you sell? Solution: After solving the above example, simply press M MAN Result: 48.72 In the above examples you have learned two things: 1. To store a number in one of the four registers CST, SEL, MAR, and MU, all you need to do is key in the number and press the key that names the desired register. 2. To compute one of the four values CST, SEL, MAR, or MU, based on numbers that you have just stored, press followed by the key that names the value you wish to compute. Understanding the above two items is the beginning of learning to get the most out of the four functions fl , n , 26 in . [OM , and And this understanding about storing and computing also applies to the functions IT) , M , M, (Th , and 1 1 (five important functions available in FIN mode). Example: In the same furniture business described in the last example, your cost on a 4' x 6' oriental rug is $502.40. Using the same mark-up and margin, what is the selling price Solution: 502.40 El oam Result: 979.68 Notice that once a number is stored in one of these four registers, it only changes if you store a new number there or if you compute a new value (or if you press I2ndF) 0 , which "clears all" registers except M). After completing the last series of examples, the numbers in the four business calculation registers are as shown below: 95.00 48.72 979.68 502.40 MU MAR SEL CST ni To verify that these registers contain those numbers, you can use the [Rai (Recall) function. Press (2ndl [ROLI to see 502.40. Press 2nd [Raj gimil to see 979.68, 2nd [Rai MAR to see 48.72, and 2nd Raj (2ncIF) POI to see 95.00. 27
