In this paper, we present formulas that turn finite power series into series of shifted Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind. Thereafter, we derive formulas for coefficients of economized power series obtained by truncating the resulting Chebyshev series. To illustrate the utility of our formulas, we apply them to the solution of first order ordinary differential equations via Taylor methods and to solving the Schrödinger equation (SE) for a spherically symmetric hyperbolic potential via the Fröbenius method. In each of the two applications, we show that the use of our formulas makes it possible to reduce the computing time, while preserving the accuracy of the results.
