Question - Paying Off a Credit Card with Payments that Form an Annuity After spending too much money on credit card interest last year, Alana applied for a new credit card that had a lower interest rate of 16.9% compounded daily. The terms of her new credit card are similar to her old one:
For any payment she makes within a month from the date of purchase, she will be charged no interest.
However, if she does not pay off the full balance, interest is charged daily on the remaining balance effective from the date of purchase.
Every month she must make a minimum payment.
On November 30, Alana completed all of her Christmas shopping using her new credit card. Also, she did not make any other purchases in the following months.
a. On December 31, Alana made a payment of $100, and on the last days of January to May, respectively, she made the minimum payment of $20 that was charged on her credit card. After the May 31 payment, the balance on her card was $610.06. What was the value of all the purchases she made on November 30?
b. How much longer would it take Alana to pay off her debt if she continued to only make the minimum payment of $20 at the end of each month? Round your answer up to the next month.
c. How much quicker could she pay off her debt by making payments of $40 at the end of each month instead? Round your answer up to the next month.
d. Alana was shocked by how long it would take for her to pay off her debt if she continued to only make the minimum payment of $20, and so she made a plan to be debt-free in six months. What equal payments would she have to make at the end of each month (starting on June 30) in order to achieve this goal?
e. If she followed her payment plan laid out in (d), what would the balance be on Alana's credit card after her third payment (halfway through her repayment plan)?
f. If on November 30, after making her final payment, her credit card balance is $0, how much interest did she pay towards her credit card since November 30 the previous year?
