To calculate the finance charge and new balance by using the unpaid balance method Step 1 Divide the annual percentage rate by 12 to find the monthly or periodic interest rate. (Round to the nearest hundredth percent when necessary.) Periodic rate = Step 2 Calculate the finance charge by multiplying the previous month’s balance by the periodic interest rate from Step 1. Finance charge = Previous month’s balance × Periodic rate Step 3 Total all the purchases and cash advances for the month. Step 4 Total all the payments and credits for the month. Step 5 Use the following formula to determine the new balance: Annual percentage rate 12 New balance Previous + Finance charge Purchases and cash advances – Payments and credits = ©2014 Cengage Learning.

Calculating Finance Charge and New Balance by the Unpaid or Previous Month’s Balance Method Carl has a charge account with an annual percentage rate of 15%. His previous month’s balance is $318.20. During July, he charged $35.50 for dry cleaning, made a payment of $45, bought new shoes for $59.25, went to a restaurant at $41.10, purchased medicine for $19, and received a credit of $9.12. Calculate the finance charge for July. What is his new balance? 1.25% Finance charge = Previous balance × Periodic rate Finance charge = 318.20 × .0125 = $3.98 New balance = 318.20 + 3.98 + 154.85 – 54.12 = $422.91 ©2014 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.

Sum of the daily balances To calculate the finance charge and new balance by using the Average Daily balance Step 1 Starting with the previous month’s balance as the first unpaid balance, multiply each by the number of days that balance existed until the next account transaction. Step 2 At the end of the billing cycle, find the sum of all the daily balance figures. Step 3 Find the average daily balance. Average daily balance = Step 4 Calculate the finance charge. Finance charge = Average daily balance × Periodic rate Step 5 Compute the new balance as before.

Open-Ended Credit Example Morgan has a revolving credit account with an 15% annual percentage rate. The finance charge is calculated by using the average daily balance method. The billing date is the first day of each month, and the billing cycle is the number of days in that month. During the month of March, Morgan’s account showed the following activity: How much is the finance charge for August and what is Morgan’s new balance? ©2014 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

Lines of Credit Example A firm has a $75,000 line of credit. The annual percentage rate is the current prime rate plus 4.5%. The balance on November 1 was $12,300. On November 7, the firm borrowed $16,700 to pay for merchandise, and on November 21 it borrowed another $8,800. On November 26, a $20,000 payment was made on the account. The billing cycle for November has 30 days. If the current prime rate is 8 ½%, what is the finance charge on the account, and what is the firm’s new balance? ©2014 Cengage Learning.

Calculating the Total Deferred Payment Price and the Amount of the Finance Charge of an Installment Loan Orlando had the option of paying $12,500 in cash or financing a car with a 4-year installment loan. The loan requires a 15% down payment and equal monthly payments of $309.90 for 48 months. What is the finance charge on the loan? What is the total deferred payment price? Down payment = 12,500 × .15 = $1,875 Amount financed = 12,500 – 1,875 = $10,625 Total amount of installment payments = 309.90 × 48 = $14,875.20 Finance charge = 14,875.20 – 10,625 = $4,250.20 Total deferred payment price = 14,875.20 + 1,875 = $16,750.20 ©2014 Cengage Learning.

To calculate the regular monthly payment of an installment loan using add-on interest Step 1 Calculate the amount to be financed by subtracting the down payment from the purchase price. Note: When the down payment is expressed as a percent, the amount financed can be found by the complement method because the percent financed is 100% minus the down payment percent. Amount financed = Purchase price(100% – Down payment percent) Step 2 Compute the add-on interest finance charge by using I = PRT, with the amount financed as the principal. Step 3 Find the total of installment payments by adding the finance charge to the amount financed. Total of installment payments = Amount financed + Finance charge Step 4 Find the regular monthly payments by dividing the total of installment payments by the number of months of the loan. Regular monthly payments = Total of installment payments Number of months of the loan ©2014 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

Calculating the Monthly Payment Using Add-on Interest Example Caroline bought furniture with a 6% add-on interest installment loan from her bank. The purchase price of the furniture was $1,500. The bank required a 10% down payment and equal monthly payments for 2 years. How much are her monthly payments? Amount financed = 1,500 (100% – 10%) = 1,500 × .9 = $1,350 Finance charge = 1,350 × .06 × 2 = $162 Total of installment payments = 1,350 + 162 = $1,512 24 = Monthly payments = 1,512 ÷ $63 ©2014 Cengage Learning.

Finance charge × 100 Amount financed To find the annual percentage rate of an installment loan by using APR tables Step 1 Calculate the finance charge per $100. Finance charge per $100 = Step 2 From Table 13-1, scan down the Number of Payments column to the number of payments for the loan in question. Step 3 Scan to the right in the Number of Payments row to the table factor that most closely corresponds to the finance charge per $100 calculated in Step 1. Step 4 Look to the top of the column containing the finance charge per $100 to find the APR of the loan. Finance charge × 100 Amount financed ©2014 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

Finding the Annual Percentage Rate by Tables Example Erin purchased appliances for $4,500. She made a $500 down payment and financed the balance with an installment loan for 24 months. If her payments are $190 per month, what APR is she paying on the loan? Amount financed = 4,500 – 500 = $4,000 Total payments = 190 × 24 = 4,560 Finance charge = 560 × 100 = $14 4,000 From Table 13-1 APR for $14.00 = 13% ©2014 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

Calculating APR by Formula Example Sharon repaid a $2,200 installment loan with 18 monthly payments of $140 each. Use the APR formula to determine the annual percentage rate of her loan. Total payments = 140 × 18 = 2,520 I = Finance charge = 2,520 – 2,200 = 320 n = months = 18 P = principal = 2,200 ©2014 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

Amount financed × Table factor To find the finance charge and the monthly payment of an installment loan by using the APR tables Step 1 Using the APR and the number of payments of the loan, locate the table factor at the intersection of the APR column and the Number of Payments row. This factor represents the finance charge per $100 financed. Step 2 Calculate the total finance charge of the loan. Finance charge = Step 3 Calculate the monthly payment.

Chapter Review Problem 1 April has a charge account with an annual percentage rate of 16%. Her previous month’s balance is $523.45. During October, she charged $75.00 for groceries, made a payment of $200, bought jeans for $61.95, went to a restaurant at $35.23, and received a credit of $11.35. Calculate the finance charge for October. What is her new balance? Finance charge = Previous balance × Periodic rate Finance charge = 523.45 × .0133 = $6.96 New balance = 523.45 + 6.96 + 172.18 – 211.35 = $491.24 ©2014 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
