+@subsubsection Calculating Values with EMACS Calc
+
+EMACS come with a very power calculator built in. You can use it to
+easily insert calculated amounts directly into your ledger buffer. From
+the menu, select @code{Calc on Amount}. Calc will pull the current
+amount to the top of the calc stack. Calulate the value as you normally
+would with an RPN calculator. When you have the desired value on thetop
+of the calc stack, press @code{y}, and calc will insert the value
+in place of the previous amount.
