Anyone Know A Good EAR Balance Calculator?

I've just had my graduate bank account taken away, and told my overdraft will now be at nearly 20% EAR. What would the monthly charge be at the end of each month on balances of £100, £200 and £500?

Any links to a calculator would be appreciated :D

    I presume that your degree was not in maths!
    That's £100 x EAR (AER) / 100 / 12
    So if the AER was 20% that would be
    £100 x 20 = £2000
    £200 / 100 = £20
    £20 / 12 = £1.67

    It's just as well RayWolfe didn't leave a link to his calculator! :D
