- Like many college students, Diana applied for and got a credit card that has an annual percentage rate (APR) of 15%. The first thing she did was buy a new DVD player for $400. At the end of the month, her credit card statement said she only needed to make a minimum monthly payment of $15. Assume Diana makes her payment when she sees her statement at the end of each month. If Diana doesn't charge anything else and only makes the minimum monthly payments, approximately how many months would it take her to completely pay off the DVD player?

She didn't have any emergency fund money and no extra money in her monthly budget, so she ended up borrowing from a pay-day loan company. As long as she can pay the loan back at the end of the 30 day period she won't be charged any interest, technically. However, she did have to pay an $19 processing fee per $100 that she borrowed. If she were to consider the processing fee to represent interest paid in her formula, what would she discover to be the annual interest rate she was charged on her short term loan? [Blank-1] The end of the month has arrived and Marina was only able to save up a portion of the money she owed so far. This means she will have to delay paying off on the remaining amount. Besides the delayed payment fee that she is charged, she will now have to pay interest on the remaining amount until it is paid off. The APR (annual percentage rate) is 46.5%, but the interest is compounded daily.
