You have a current credit card balance of $450.00, which you are paying off so you can close the account. No new purchases have been added this month, and interest is computed on the average daily balance method. The APR is 18%, and the minimum payment is 3%. If you make the minimum payment this month, what will the new balance be on the account? Please help.
