Matthew purchased a washer and dryer for $2,885 using an 18-month deferred payment plan with an interest rate of 26.12%. what is the balance after the deferment period if payments of $85 were made each month? $1,355.00 $2,720.86 $2,885.00 $4,250.86

For a deferred payment plan no interest is accrued for the deferment period.

If $85 is made each month, then in 18 months, 18 * 85 = $1,530 must have been paid off from the balance owed.

Thus, the remaining balance after the deferment period is $2,885 - $1,530 = $1,355.
