Its built-in business
formulas let you perform
complicated finance,
accounting and statistical
functions — the ones that
usually require a lot of time
and a stack of reference books,
like present and future value
calculations, amortizations
and balloon payments.
The BA-3 5 means you
spend less time calculating,
and more time learning. One
keystroke takes the place
of many.
The calculator is just part
of the package. You also get
a book that follows most
business courses: the Business
Analyst Guidebook. Business
professors helped us write it,
to help you get the most out
of calculator and classroom.
A powerful combination

Texas A&M’s Kimmo Alkio closely watches his backhand shot in
his championship match against Northeast Louisiana’s Willie Jans
son. Alkio lost to Jansson 6-2, 6-3 Sunday at the Omar Smith Tennis
Center. Alkio and Marcel Vos reached the semifinals in doubles.
Bobby Kleinecke said, although the
Ags’ singles players didn’t do well,
he thought, as a team, A&M played
better than in its last tournament.
“That’s (the doubles win) a super
win for us,” Kleinecke said.
Kleinecke added it’s an especially
big win for A&M since Texas was
ranked in the Top 10 in the nation
last year.
“It’ll give us a lot of confidence for
doubles,” he said, “because both of
our doubles teams made the semi-fi
nals.”
