ORADELL, NJ, March 10, 1997 LandWare announces the availability of the
Financial Consultant for PalmPilot. The Financial Consultant
transforms your PalmPilot into a powerful business tool. This
calculator has been designed specifically for real estate, retailing
and business professionals who need to use their PalmPilot units to
make fundamental financial decisions quickly and accurately.
Time and Money Calculations
The calculator provides a core set of time and money functions:
simple and compound interest (i%), periods (n), present value (PV),
payment (PMT) and future value (FV). Ordinary or payment (annuity)
due problems can also be directly calculated. Quickly convert
between nominal and effective interest rates using periodic or
continuous compounding.

Generate amortization schedules with single tap calculation of
loan balance, interest and principle portions. Quickly calculate
Canadian mortgage repayments or any other scenario where compounding
periods differ from payment periods.
Investment Analysis
Use your PalmPilot and the Financial Consultant to evaluate your
investment opportunities involving multiple cash flows with the Net
present value (NPV) and Internal Rate of Return (IRR) functions.
Date Calculations
Calculate future or past dates and the number of days between
dates using the choice of two different date formats.
Keystroke Depreciation
Straight line and declining balance methods can be used for
determining depreciation and remaining depreciable values.
Retail-Style Percentage Calculations
The Financial Consultant supports 13 different percentage
calculations including markups, differences, cost prices and margins.
Scientific Functions
A powerful set of core scientific functions are also included which
give you single tap access to reciprocals, square roots, factorials,
logarithms and anti-logarithms.
