most of the ppl here do not know or have the need to know about interest calculation
from your examples above, the RM3857 should be correct, but the new spending confirm will incur interest as well, either from the transaction date or posting date, this I'm not too sure
Whattt..the new spending from next statement cycle also will incur interest? Oh noo!!!

It is from transaction date. And the interest of RM57 is incorrect. I can tell you because it is from my experience. I insisted the bank to give me the breakdown of interest because the amount that I calculated is different. Here is the calculation of interest.
For eg, statement date 31.5.2017. Due date 20.6.2017. Payment date is 22.6.2017. Interest 18% pa
3.5.2017 Transaction A RM200. Interest: RM200 x 18% x 50 days(3.5.2017-21.6.2017)/365days = RM4.93
5.5.2017 Transaction B RM300. Interest: RM300 x 18% x 45 days(5.5.2017-21.6.2017)/365days = RM6.66
Hope it helps.
From your example it seems you paid after the due date, and I assume late payment fee will incur?
And what about the minimum payment?
And is it true new spending from other statement cycle also also will incur interest as mentioned above?
Below is the sample table that I come out. The calculation is from transaction date to 26 June 2017.
Like I mentioned before, my due date is 4 June. Below calculation is not adding into the minimum payment of 5%.
Consider I pay minimum payment on 26 May 2017. How the minimum payment will be put into the calculation?
