Everett has a credit card that uses the adjusted balance method. For the first 10 days of one of his 30-day billing cycles, his balance was $3100. He then made a payment of $1900, so his balance decreased to $1200, and it remained that amount for the next 10 days, Everett then made a new purchase for $700. His balance for the last 10 days of the billing cycle was $1900. If his credit card's APR is 34% how much was Everett charged in interest for the billing cycle?
