$455.87, assuming Sara has not made any additional charges on her card since receiving the previous credit card bill. When a credit card company assesses a finance charge, the finance charge ($6.74) is added to the existing balance ($449.13) to arrive at a new balance ($455.87). As an aside, if possible, Sara should revolve (carry) her balance on a credit card that charges a lower rate since the $6.74 finance charge represents 18% (17.7%) on an annualized basis.
No, a company can not charge a credit card without permission. This violation should be reported immediately to your credit card company.
Minimum Finance charges have nothing to do with MasterCard and everything to do with your Financial Institution. Example of Financial Institution "US Bank". Any Credit Card, regardless of type, is going to have a minimum finance charge. You can find out how much the charge is by reading your Card member agreement. You can avoid interest or the minimum finance charge by paying the full balance on you credit card bill.

minimum
When a credit card is taken out with a 0% interest facility it is usually only given for a certain time period, say 12 or 18 months. Once this period has ended it is usually required that the balance on the card is paid in full (all this should be in the terms and conditions of the credit card). The credit card company will usually charge a Bill deferred finance charge if the 0% balance is not cleared on the card.
No...you need to call your credit card company and file a complaint.
