Answer:

The correct option is A. $7.04

Step-by-step explanation:

Remaining balance of Manuel on his credit card = $563

APR that is charged by company = 15%

Now, Interest paid by Manuel in 1 year = 15% of Remaining Balance

⇒ Interest paid in 1 year = 0.15 × 563

⇒ Interest paid in 1 year = $84.50

Now, 1 year = 12 months

So, Interest paid in 12 months = $84.50

$\bf\textbf{Hence, Interest paid in 1 month = }\frac{84.5}{12}=\$7.04$

The correct option is A. $7.04
