Average daily balance is $ 1.809,

Finance charge is $ 0.76

New balance is $ 55.54

Step-by-step explanation:

After paying $15.00,

New balance = 50.51 - 15 = 35.51,

Again after spending $19.27,

Final balance = 35.51 + 19.27 = 54.78,

∵ Number of days = 25,

So, the average daily balance =

= $ 1.809

Finance charge annual rate = 18% = 0.18
