3051.05 + 214.77 + 232.80 - 138.64=3,359.98 Balance for "August" cycle.

3,359.98 X .37/100 =12.43 interest on unpaid balance

3,359.98 + 12.43 =$3,372.41 Principal and interest balance for August cycle.

It states his unpaid balance is                   3051.05

3051.05 x .37% = 3062.34   (rounded)

New Purchases  214.77 + 232.8 =              447.57     (these will accrue interest on the next billing cycle)

Payments                                                   -138.64

 

New Balance:                                            3371.26
