The
Canon Financial Manager was the first financial calculator based on a Toshiba
single-chip calculator IC. If you compare it with the Texas Instruments Business
Analyst-II you notice some enhancements in both the financial and the
statistical functions. Some years later even TI changed within the financial
calculators to Toshiba designs, view the BA-SOLAR.
In 1987 it was replaced with the Financial Manager II.
Like most other financial calculators this Financial Manager has some siblings with scientific functions. Don't miss the F-73 and F-73P. The Financial Printer added - as the nameplate implies - a small printer to the basic functions.
