Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

At the end of May, the company had a credit card bill of $19,477.47.

The company must make a minimum payment that is the greater of $500 or 4.5% of the credit card bill. Therefore, 4.5% of the credit card bill would be

4.5/100 × 19477.47 = 0.045 × 19477.47

= 876.5 rounded up to the nearest cent.

Since the company must make a minimum payment that is the greater of $500 or 4.5% of the credit card bill, then the minimum monthly payment for May is

$876.5 rounded up to the nearest cent.
