Synopsis

There are a number of books on financial mathematics, which either discuss the methods or use HP financial calculators. Using HP calculators is slow and prone to error and the variables cannot be seen once entered. Since most financial managers have Excel on their desk, it is more efficient to solve the problems on spreadsheets and gain the benefits of layout and more comprehensive information.

Day provides a set of tools and methods to apply to Excel for solving mathematical problems. This is a practical guide with exercises and solutions throughout.
