James owes $6,927 on a credit card with a 19.5% interest rate. What is the monthly payment he should make to pay off this debt in 12 months, assuming he does not charge any more purchases with the card?

I think the formula you need  is:

A = P( i (1+i)^n / ((1+i)^n-1)    A = monthly payment   n = 12 payments   i = periodic interest in decimal = 19.5/12=.01625

 

A= 6927 (.01625 (1.01625)^12/  (1.01625)^12  -1)

A=640.02    each month for 12 months
