Suppose you have a credit card with a 24.31% apr on purchases. you pay the minimum payment by the statement due date, leaving an outstanding balance of $3,200. how much money would you save by paying off the balance 1 day later as opposed to paying it off 30 days later?

  $61.81

Step-by-step explanation:

29 days' interest on  $3200 will be ...

  I = Prt = $3200·(0.2431)·(29/365) ≈ $61.81

We assume "exact interest", using a daily rate that is the annual rate divided by 365. In the formula above, the r is the annual rate, and the t is the time in years. 29 days is then 29/365 year.
