Assume that you have a balance of $4000 on your credit card and that you make no more charges. If your APR is 23.9% and each month you make only the minimum payment of 5% of your balance, then when is the first time that the balance would be less than $100?

The balance will be less than $100 after 44 months payment

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the time at which the Balance on a credit card would be less than $100.

To calculate this, we proceed as follows;

The monthly Interest rate = 23.9%/12 = 1.99166667%

Balance after t months = Credit Card balance * [(1 + Monthly interest rate ) * (1- Minimum payment rate)]^t

The credit card balance is $4,000, and the minimum payment rate is 5%

We plug these values into the equation to get;

$4,000 * [(1+1.99166667%) * (1 - 5%)]^t

= $4000 *[1.0199166667 * 0.95]^t

= $4000 * (0.968920836)^t

Balance after t months < 100

$4,000 * (0.968920836)^t < 100

(0.968920836)^t < 0.025

t = 43.9 months = 44 months
