Hi again,
Wonder if anyone can help me understand these spreadsheets?
I am trying to fill in Vamps Complex Credit Charges Spreadsheet. The first bit I understand (the charges section), but the section on interest I am struggling with as the numbers don't seem to work out - basically I think I am doing something wrong but not sure what!
The heading are:
- Interest Charged - I am filling in the interest amount shown on that months statement.
- Statement Balance - I took this to mean the total balance on the card at that time - is this correct?
- Amount Paid - this is where it got confusing as the notes make it quite hard to understand - Do I put the amount paid in as shown on that statement, or is it something else??
- Remaining Balance - I have been filling in the amount left to spend as shown on the statement - however the spreadsheet seems to want to calculate it automatically as: 'statement balance minus amount paid'?? Which isn't the same thing.
- Penalties chargable to interest - is this just the charges from that month, or do I put in the cumulative total?
Sorry to sound so stupid!! But very confused - Help!!
Thanks,
Chopski
