[R] posterior probability in finite mixture

Dear All,

This is a question somewhat off-topic.

Say, if I have known the number of components in the mixture, all the
estimated parameters, prior probabilities, and so on for a finite
mixture model, how might I compute the posterior probabilities of each
case for a new dataset without observed response (Y)? I want to know
the parametric form of such calculation such that I can calculate it
manually in excel or sql.

Thank you so much!
