I keep getting completely wrong answers in financial calculator Sharp El-738. Even after resetting it and opening the back part to readjust the battery, nothing seems to give me the right answer.
An example is:
16, N; 2, PMT; 100, FV; -103, PV; COMP I/Y
I keep getting 67.25 instead of 1.78 every single time. Heelp!

If you are talking about the multiplication sign, look for a key marked with a cross. It should be in the same column as the other operations, between the subtraction (-) and the division keys.
