If the applicable periodic percentage rate under the agreement governing the plan is other than daily, interest may be calculated on an amount not in excess of the average of outstanding unpaid indebtedness for the applicable billing period, determined by dividing the total of the amounts of outstanding unpaid indebtedness for each day in the applicable billing period by the number of days in the billing period. If the applicable periodic percentage rate under the agreement governing the plan is monthly, a billing period shall be deemed to be a month or monthly if the last day of each billing period is on the same day of each month or does not vary by more than four days therefrom. Nothing in this section shall be construed to authorize the charging of interest on the amount of any accrued interest remaining unpaid on the account. L. 1985, c. 81, s. 4, eff. March 14, 1985.
