You have credit card debt of $ 25 comma 000 that has an APR (monthly compounding) of 18 %. Each month you pay the minimum monthly payment only. You are required to pay only the outstanding interest. You have received an offer in the mail for an otherwise identical credit card with an APR of 12 %. After considering all your alternatives, you decide to switch cards, roll over the outstanding balance on the old card into the new card, and borrow additional money as well. How much can you borrow today on the new card without changing the minimum monthly payment you will be required to pay? Note: Make sure all calculations are held to at least five (5) decimal places.

    APR 1=18%

    APR 2=12%

    Periods per year=12

    Monthly interest rate 1=18%/12=1.5%

    Interest payment=25000*1.25%=375

    Monthly interest rate 2=18%/12=1%

    PV of interest payments=375/1%=37500

    Additional borrowing=37500-25000=12500
