Find a reasonably-priced business calculator for general office use

Calculators are useful for business people who need to do quick math on the road. For the accountant who does a lot of adding, size and portability is second to usability. The capacity to print output onto paper with the office calculator is beneficial.

I recommend: Choose from a wide variety of business calculators, including adding calculator or machine and battery-powered calculators of all sizes, at Shoplet or Avanta Office Machines.

Buy graphing calculators and scientific calculators for specialized needs

Some calculators allow the user to input and return answers that include fractions as well as the traditional decimal numbers. Your company may need scientific calculators if you employ engineers and mathematicians.

I recommend: Purchase a graphing calculator at GraphingCalculators. Choose from several scientific calculators at Best Buy.

Use calculators as promotional items and corporate gifts

Calculators come in a variety of bright colors and imprinted with your company's logo for a relatively low cost. These are great incentives for potential customers and serve to increase visibility for your company's name. Slightly more expensive calculators can be personalized with a customer or employee's name to be given as a special gift.

I recommend: Buy bulk quantities of small colorful calculators imprinted with your company's logo at For Most Specialties. Order personalized calculators engraved with the names of employees or customers as special gifts from Gifts for Professionals.
