Answer:

$19.64

Step-by-step explanation:

 Step one:

given data

initial balance= $135.50

1.5% interest charge=0.015 of 135.5= $2.03

purchases= $63.83

payment=$50.00

Step two:

 at the beginning of the month, the balance after the %1.5 tax will be

=135.5-2.03=133.47

Also the purchase and the payment amount to 63.83+50=$113.83

the new balance after purchases and payment is

=133.47-113.83

=$19.64
