What type of credit and how many months in arrears is indicated by an R3 rating on a credit bureau?

  1. Revolving account, 1 month in arrears

  2. Installment loan, 3 months in arrears

  3. Revolving account, 2 months in arrears

  4. Installment loan, 2 months in arrears

The correct answer is: Revolving account, 2 months in arrears

An R3 rating on a credit bureau indicates that a revolving account (such as a credit card) is 2 months in arrears. This means the individual has missed two consecutive payments on their revolving account. Options A and D are incorrect because they refer to installment loans rather than revolving accounts. Option B is incorrect because an R3 rating indicates 2 months in arrears, not 3 months.
