Next year i will be going to university to study a finance related field. I will have to take business calculus and related math courses. What type of calculator would your recommend; graphing or scientific? I don't want to put out $100+ for a graphing calculator if it is not necessary.

The best answer would come from the teachers themselves. If you happen to know which college you'll attend, locate a business professor and ask them what is recommended for most of your classes. (Or if you don't know what college, just ask one that's local to you what they do.)
Now, often the business calculus class is offered by the math department rather than the business department, so you might check out who in the math department actually teaches that course. Many calculus teachers require a TI graphing calculator, but that may not be an absolute, which is why you should ask the teachers you WILL have.

You might want to try this free online calculator which is a cross between a spreadsheet and a calculator.It does graphs and is easily linked and shared. If it works for you that's great, if not , you have not spent any money.

Wait until you get the syllabus for the class before you purchase -- many courses will not permit calculators with multiline screens (eg. graphing calculators)
