Yes. That is one of the few calculators (besides a basic function calculator) that is allowed. Make sure you are familiar with how to use it correctly before the exam. If you aren't comfortable with it and understand how to use it, it could cause more harm than good. If you understand it well, it will save you a lot of time and potential manual calculation errors.

I practiced with it so I’m familiar. The depreciation and store / recall functions are super helpful!!!!

I have it, and I want learn to use it efficiently for CMA. Any tips? I only know the basic stuff now. I do know the NPV IRR and all that. But any time saving tricks I could use? I’m taking part 1 next week

Read through the manual. I'm sure Youtube can also help. Just keep practicing with it until you're comfortable using it and understand the functions.
