COMPUTERIZED CASH REGISTER SOFTWARE PROGRAM

Business Calculator

Yes, rpsoft2000 is the author of this software.  However, we ourselves are still tickled with this new business calculator that has been added to the convert 2000 software package.  It has rapidly become almost the only calculator that we use any more.  It features a simulated paper tape readout that shows calculations as you go.  Hence it is excellent for balancing check books, or accounts, or even for usage as a temporary software cash register.

Included of course are the normal functions of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.  But it also includes some more features as percentage help, some cash register functions, a visible ten item memory, and even some buttons for custom constants that you can set up - such as commission rates.  If you wish, the business calculator also can send its output to the default printer connected to your computer.

Simulated Cash Register functions include "tax and total" for calculating tax and showing it separately, and then the total.   "Cash and Change" which allows you to enter the amount the customer pays and then calculates change.  And "Credit Card" which allows for a signature below for customers to sign.  You can also add a custom name of yourself or your customer at the top of the tape print - within certain length restrictions of course.

More:  Keyboard "hot keys" allow you to control much of this calculator from the number pad on your computer

Overall - Convert 2000 is a collection of Six Calculators

• Business Calculator:  A computer calculator with some excellent features.  It includes a simulated paper tape readout on screen that shows calculations as you go - and it can also print to a default printer.  It also includes 10 memory locations that are visible to help you remember which memory value is which.
• Metric to English Calculator: that includes conversions for:  weight, distance, volume, temperature, hexadecimal to ascii and decimal, and quality sigma to ppm
• Mortgage Loan Calculator: that allows you to calculate any of the four items of:  Principal (amount of loan) , interest rate, term of loan, or payment amount by entering the other  three.  An amortization schedule that also allows save and print is included.  Many options.
• Quality Calculator:  Many Handheld calculators will do statistics.  This one does not.  What it does do is include many items not found on hand held calculators including mtbf calculations, and the relationship between mtbf, mttr and system availability.  Also includes ppm to sigma calculations plus fahrenheit to celsius conversion.
• Chinese Calendar Calculator:  This calculator is a simplistic approximation of the Chinese tradition of naming years after animals and how it relates to our own Gregorian solar calendar years.  It is a simple approximation, and is mostly included for fun.
• Custom Calculator:  Allows 9 lines of programmable calculations.  It does not include all programmable functions, but includes many of the common ones such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, %, logs, natural logs, exponentiation, and more.  It does not allow parenthesis but does allow multi-line information transfer at least in a downward direction.  This can be set up for many common small business needs.  Examples included within the calculator.

Overall - Of course, with differences in definitions and rounding techniques, you will need to check settings and ensure suitability of these calculators for your own needs.  However, this software can be an exceptional help when you need it and it comes at a very low package price.  Switch from one calculator to another by simply clicking on the calculator you wish on the pull-down menu that it is on each main calculator screen.  An option file can remember your settings if you wish it to be saved.  Load and save of multiple options is also provided for.
