Your parents' original purchase price was $1,550.00 plus 7.25% sales tax. They enter into an agreement where the interest (11.75% APR) is waived for the first 12 months provided they make the required monthly payments; otherwise the interest is accrued from the date of purchase. They miss the first payment due date. The late fee is $29.00. How much is the interest?

    The interest due to the late payment will be = $195.33 (A)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    original purchase price = $1550

    sales tax = 7.5%

    APR (annual percentage rate) = 11.75%

    late fee = $29.00

    the Apr is the interest charged yearly and it is charged on the principal amount (original amount) of the property

    The APR on the original purchase will be

    11.75% of $1550 = $182.13

    from this question the monthly payment of the APR will be

    = $182.13 / 12 = $15.18

    hence the total interest accrued/paid from the first month due to late payment is = APR payment + late fee

    = $182.13 + $29 = $211.13
