A credit card company charges 18% simple interest for overdue accounts. How much interest will Kristen owe three months from now on a current balance of $1500?

Answer: The amount that Kristen would owe three months from now is $67.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Where

I represents interest paid on the loan.

P represents the principal or the current balance.

R represents interest rate

T represents the duration for which the account is overdue in years.

From the information given,

P = 1500

R = 18%

T = 3 months = 3/12 = 0.25 year

I = (1500 * 18 * 0.25) / 100 = $67.5
