<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> INTRODUCTION

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> The purpose of this text/workbook is to provide step-by-step procedures for solving basic <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> business mathematical problems using hand and calculator operations. The <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> text/workbook also includes basic, intermediate, and advanced business applications.

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> DESCRIPTION

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> This text/workbook is designed to facilitate self-paced instruction. The step-by-step procedures <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> for solving problems are presented for calculator computations as well as for hand <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> computations. Before beginning Unit I, a mathematical pretest is used to enable <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> the instructor to analyze each student's mathematical ability. Test results are used to make <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> adjustments in assignments and in the amount of personal instruction given.

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> The basic operations of the electronic calculator are explained in a simple, easy-to-understand <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> language. The explanation is followed with step-by-step instructions for sample <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> problems. The sequence of function keys in the calculator units is also illustrated. For each <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> unit, practice exercises are included to apply the basic skill. Frequent self-tests are included to <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> enable students to check their own mastery of function keys presented in the part/unit. Answers <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> to practice exercises are given at the end of each part/unit to give students immediate feedback <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> on their progress.

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> Clearly stated performance objectives are found at the beginning of each unit throughout the <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> text/workbook. Adequate exercises are included to allow students to meet the performance <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> objectives.

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> TESTING

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> Each part ends with a self-test to check a student’s mastery of the function keys <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> presented in the part. Each unit ends with a test of the performance objectives stated at the <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"> beginning of the unit.
