Respuesta :

Answer:

A and C

Explanation:

Credit card companies get their income form the following three main sources

  • Interest paid by cardholders
  • Fees charged to cardholders' credit cards.
  • transaction charges paid by merchants who accept credit cards

Interests form the bulk of income to the card companies. Typically charge interest arises when customers carry a balance from a month to the next. Fees charged include annual fees, late fees, cash advance fees, balance transaction fees, among others. Merchants usually pay a percentage for every transaction conducted via a credit card.  The percentage ranges between 1% to 3 %.
