Question about statement billing

I have Discover CC. The billing Statement closing date is the 10th of each month, reports to the credit beaurus on the 10th and payment is due the 5th. 

 

I am trying to keep my CC utilization rate less than 10%.

 

I want to understand the concept fully.

 

If I charge $200 worth of charges within the billing cycle but pay off $100 before the statement cuts does that mean it will only report $100 balance or the full $200? 

 

Thanks!!

Discover will report the balance that's present on the date statement closes. 

So, if you make payment before statement closes, you will reduce amount that's reported. 

In a nutshell, yes $100.00
