What is the total deposit Rachel expects the bank to deposit into her account after the total bank fees and charges are taken out of the credit purchases on​ Monday?

Answer 1

$1,479

Step-by-step explanation:

For computing the total deposit, first we have to determine the bank charges which is shown below:

= Merchandise sold × bank charges rate

= $1,500 × 1.4%

= 21

Now the total amount deposited would be

= Merchandise sold - bank charges

= $1,500 - $21

= $1,479

Simply we deduct the bank charges from the Merchandise sold so that the correct amount can come.
