I Might Drive you guys nuts today!

Question

Ok guys heres another problem i can't figure out.
After compiling my code it runs well, but my teacher said i need to use teh number format class to 2 decimal places and when i write that in my code it gives an error saying cannot find symbol. Ill post the code and i will put 5 stars on that line. Can you figure it out?
import java.util.*;
public class Account
          public static void main(String[]args)
               double prevBalance, extraCharges, newBalance, minPymt;//minPymt= minimum payment
               double interest=.02;//interest is 2 percent.
               Scanner scan =new Scanner(System.in);
               System.out.println("Enter your previous balance:");
               prevBalance=scan.nextDouble();
               System.out.println("Enter additional charges");
               extraCharges=scan.nextDouble();
               interest=interest*prevBalance;
               ******DecimalFormat fmt=new DecimalFormat("0.##");
               newBalance=0;
               minPymt=0;
               if(prevBalance>0)
                         prevBalance=prevBalance;
                         newBalance=interest+prevBalance+extraCharges;
               if(newBalance<50)
                         newBalance=newBalance;
                         minPymt=0;
               else if(newBalance>50 && newBalance<300)
                         minPymt=50;
               else if(newBalance>300)
                         minPymt=(.20*newBalance);
               NumberFormat fmt2=NumberFormat.getPercentInstance();
               System.out.println("Previous Balance:\t$"+fmt.format(prevBalance));
               System.out.println("Additional Charges:\t$"+fmt.format(extraCharges));
               System.out.println("Interest:     \t$"+fmt2.format(interest));
               System.out.println("New Balance:\t$"+fmt.format(newBalance));
               System.out.println("Minimum Payment:\t$"+fmt.format(minPymt));
Any Ideas of what i'm doing wrong?

You didn't drive anyone nuts.
No need to worry about that happening here. we've all
been nuts for a long time already :)
Good luck with your assignments.that's dangerously close to "you don't have to be mad to work here, but it helps!!!!!" j!
we've got a load of Indian contractors at work, and they eat curry every day. I'm thinking of putting a sign up in the kitchen that says "You don't have to be Madhur Jaffrey to work here, but it helps"
