Answer:

Finance charge = $5.258

New Balance = $265.758

Step-by-step explanation:

By previous balance method,

Finance charge = Previous balance×Periodic percentage rate

Periodic percentage rate = APR/12 = $\frac{0.18}{12}$

= 0.015

Finance charge = 350×0.015

= $5.258

Also, new balance = Previous balance+New purchases+Finance charge-Payments/credits

New balance = 350.55+459.95+5.258-150

= $265.758
