How much interest will you have to pay for a credit card bal
How much interest will you have to pay for a credit card balance of $678 that is 1 month overdue, if a 22 percent annual rate is charged?
Solution
Interest rate per month is given by:
= 1/12(20%)
=1/12*20/100
= 0.0833 * 0.2
= 0.016 interest rate per month.
Now
678 * 0.016 = 10.848
678 + 10.848 = 688.84
Now again 688.84 * 0.016 = 11.021
So net interest charges = 10.848 + 11.021
= 21.869 $
