1) Find the monthly rate 14.25% / 12 = 1.1875%
If you pay at the beginning of the month
1350 -300= $1050
If you pay at the the end of the month
1350+ (1350*1.1875%)-300= $1,066.03
So I saved
1066.03-1050=$16.03 saved
2)$300 in a savings account earning 3% APR would earn 300*(3%/12) = $0.75 in one month.
$300 on a credit card at an APR of 14.25% would cost you 300*(14.25%/12) = $3.56 in one month. If you spend $3.56 on the credit card to earn $0.75 in the savings account by choosing to bank the $300, you lost $2.81.
Hope it helps:-)
