* To calculate average, add amounts from each month together and divide by the number of months (in this case, 6).
Example:
|
Expense |
Month 1 |
Month 2 |
Month 3 |
Month 4 |
Month 5 |
Month 6 |
Avg. |
|
Credit Card Payment |
$230 |
$250 |
$170 |
$400 |
$375 |
$220 |
$274 |
$230 + $250 + $170 + $400 + $375 + $220 = $1,645
$1,645/6 = $ 274.17
