Answer:

annual percentage rate = 24%

monthly percentage rate = 24%/12=2%=0.02

previous monthly balance = $549.79

Finance charge = Previous month’s balance x Periodic rate =549.79*0.02 =10.9958

Payment+credits = $143.30+$398.05= 541.35

Purchases and Cash advances =$230.18+$204.94+$214.21 =649.33

so new balance is given by

New Balance = Previous balance + Finance Charge + Purchases and Cash advances - Payments

New Balance = 549.79 + 10.9958 + 649.33 - 541.35 = $668.7658
