About the Financial Math test

Sustainable growth for many businesses depends on accurate financial information. At the core of this financial information is financial math: functions, computations, and arithmetic related to financial information. Proper business decision-making is supported by various mathematical analyses and computations.

High-quality financial mathematics is a hallmark of high-quality financial positions. To find suitable candidates for your organization, this screening test uses practical, scenario-based questions that ask candidates to solve financial math problems that regularly come up when handling finance-related matters, such as computation of present and future value, net present value, internal rate of return, real and nominal rate of return, and products leading to profit maximization.

Candidates performing well on this Financial Math test will possess a good understanding of financial math and help your organization solve complicated finance-related problems and computations. Successful candidates will provide valuable input for your company’s financial decisions.

All Financial Math test questions can be solved without using a calculator, but given the time constraints, access to a calculator is highly recommended for all candidates taking this test.
