Answer:

C)$1,117.61

Step-by-step explanation:

The balance on the credit card is $1187.92 with interest of 12.25%.

r = 12.25% = 12.25/100 = 0.1225

A late fee = $30

Amount = P(1 + r/12)^1 + late fee

Now plug in the given values in to the formula, we get

1187.92 (1 + 0.1225/12) + 30

= 1200.05 + 30

= $1230.05

During the next due date, you pay $125, so the new balance

1230.05 (1 + 0.1225/12) - 125

= $1117.61

Thank you.
