Question

When Vondel Bradshaw checked his credit card statement, he found that a sales

slip dated 3/2 for $12.49 was posted as $12.99. He also found that a purchase
for $56.29 dated 2/19 was unauthorized. If the new balance on the statement
was $491.23, what is the correct new balance?

Answer 1

Answer: $548.02

Explanation:

Correct for inaccurate postings...

add the $0.50 overcharge and the $56.29 unauthorized charge from $491.23

491.23+.50+56.29=548.02
