Advanced Percentage Calculations
Calculation
Steps
list price + sales tax = final price
sales tax addition
list price = 35.25, tax percentage = 7.5%
35.25 + (35.25 × 0.075) = 37.89
35.25 + 2.64375 = 37.89
35.25
+ 7.5
%
(display is tax dollar amount 2.64375)
= R2
(display is final price 37.89)
list price - discount = sale price
discount subtraction
list price = 40, discount percentage = 25%
40.00 - (40.00 × 0.025) = 30.00
40.00 - 10.00 = 30.00
now add in tax of 7.5% ???

More About Using the Calculator Memory
The calculator memory is at 0 until you hit m+ or m-. Each time you hit
m+ the number on the display is added to the number in the calculator memory. Each time you hit
m- the number on the display is subtracted from the number in the calculator memory. To recall the number in the calculator memory hit
mr. To zero out the memory hit mc.
Use AC to clear out the current calculation. Use
CE to clear out the most recent entry. Note that if the AC key is not visible, hit
CE and then AC to clear out your calculation.
