Tony Chang gives good customers a cash discount of 1.5% on any amount that they pay within 5 days of the invoice date. An invoice for $1,890 was written on February 2. The customer paid $900 on February 6. Compute the amount that Tony must credit to his customer's account. (This problem involves the partial payment of an invoice within the discount period.)​
