Note the following information. Aline of credit is an agreement between a bank and a borrower by which the borrower can borrow any amount of money (up to a mutually agreed-upon maximum) at any time, simply by writing a check. Typically, monthly simple interest payments are required, and the borrower is free to make principal payments as frequently or infrequently as he or she wants. Usually, a line of credit is secured by the title to the borrower's house, and the interest paid to the bank by the borrower is deductible from the borrower's income taxes.


James and Danna Wright did not have sufficient cash to pay their income taxes. However, they had previously set up a line of credit with their bank. On April 15, they wrote a check to the Internal Revenue Service on their line of credit for $10,352. The line's interest rate is 4.125%. (Round your answers to the nearest cent.)
