Every register is 0 on load — nothing is pre-filled. Use Load example to populate the worked $300,000 mortgage TVM values, or just start typing.
Monthly mortgage payment
Calculate the payment for a $300,000 mortgage over 30 years at 6% APR. Store 12 in P/Y so both P/Y and C/Y use monthly compounding.
The worksheet converts I/Y to a monthly periodic rate.
The DATE, ICONV, PROFIT, DEPR, BRKEVN, and BOND worksheet keys are simplified learning helpers: they return the CFA answer but do not reproduce the exact TI BA II Plus keystroke sequence. Algebraic entry, the TVM worksheet, P/Y and C/Y, amortization, NPV, and IRR match the hardware keystrokes.

Interactive finance visuals
The worksheet values drive the amortization curve, payment mix, cash-flow timeline, and cumulative discounted value so the BA II Plus workflow has the same visual feedback as the underlying finance math.
Prefer RPN?
The BA II Plus workflow is algebraic and worksheet-driven. If you use the other CFA-approved calculator family, try the HP 12C-style RPN calculator instead.

FAQ
Is this an exact TI BA II Plus emulator?
No. This is an independent BA II Plus-style financial calculator for browser use. It recreates common algebraic entry, TVM, amortization, NPV, and IRR workflows without using Texas Instruments firmware or copied assets.
Is the BA II Plus allowed on the CFA exam?
CFA Institute allows Texas Instruments BA II Plus calculators, including the BA II Plus Professional, and HP 12C calculators. Always check the current CFA calculator policy before exam day.
How do P/Y and C/Y work?
P/Y is payments per year and C/Y is compounds per year. If both are 12, a 6% I/Y becomes a 0.5% periodic rate for monthly TVM calculations.
Why is PMT negative for a loan?
Financial calculators use cash-flow signs. A positive loan balance and negative payment mean money is moving in opposite directions.
