Explanation / Answer

Outstanding balance on May 12, $378.50

The daily balance for each day during the billing cycle would be:

Day 1 (May 12):   1* $378.50 =$378.50

Day 2-Day 4 (May 13- May 15) : 3* ($378.50+$129.79) =3*$ 508.29 =$ 1524.87

Day 5- Day 19 (May 16- May 31): 15* ($ 508.29-$50)=16* $ 458.29= $ 7332.64

Day 20- Day 27 (June 1-June 7): 8*($ 458.29 + $135.85)= 8* ($594.14)=$ 4753.12

Day 28-Day 31 (June 8- June 11): 4*($594.14 +$ 37.63)=4*631.77=$ 2527.08

Total balance=$378.50 + $ 1524.87 + $ 7332.64 + $ 4753.12 + $ 2527.08 =$ 16516.21

Average daily balance= $ 16516.21/31= $ 532.78

Finance charges= $ 532.78* 0.013= $ 6.92614

Therefore, the amount due on June 12 is $ 16516.21+$ 6.92614= $ 16523.13614
