| Calculator
Policy |
For
this course, a general purpose non-financial calcuator can be
used. Students who do not have ready access
to a financial calculator should be able to perform all the required
analysis and calculations using a general purpose non-financial
calculator for the tutorials, assignments, mid-term test, and
final examination.
You
can also use a non-programmable financial calculator for the tutorials,
assignment, mid-term test, and final examination. Common financial
calculators are HP12c and TI BAII PLUS. User manual in simplified
chinese and a tutorial for the HP12c can
be found here and a simple tutorial for the HP12c can
be found here. User manual for the TI BAII can
be found here.
Regardless
of the types of calculators used for this course, students are
responsible for their own equipment and they cannot be shared
in a quiz, test, or examination situation. As a result, students
MUST bring their own calculators to each class. In addition, each
student must be proficient in the use of their own equipment.
Electronic
translators CANNOT be used for quiz, test, or examination situations,
but they can be used during class (only with volume off) and your
own study time. |
