I use these calculators every day.

I love Sullivan on Comp’s calculators. They let you calculate dates, present value, permanent disability, life pension, and many other things I need in my everyday work. And they let you do commutations, too, which is amazing because we used to do those by hand, and it was tedious. I use these calculators all the time.
