My Project

In the 2023-2024 we will be having an investment club and compete against other schools and universities across the country. By using financial calculators we will be able to calculate our returns and effectively plan our investments. An advantage of using a financial calculator is to program the calculator for investment equations. The functions of these calculators would allow my students to figure simple interest, compound interest, cash flow, and many more equations necessary in developing a strong portfolio. The time value of money is something that is important to understand at such a young age and this is a goal we should all have for our children.
