Scott is right. If you have a computer with Windows on it and/or if you have a smart phone, you have access to at least one calculator! Have you found them yet?
I just typed into Google search engine:
3500/(1+(.057/12))^60=
and hit enter and it said:
2633.83.....
3500/(1+(.057/12))^60=
and hit enter and it said:
2633.83.....
google, huh ... wow
That is a pretty quick way to do such things if you do not have your calculator handy :)
