    i got stuck on calculating Investment income foregone where:
    ($1,430,000,000 – 1,040,000,000) x 3% – where is this 1,040,000,000 coiming from and why we need to calc Business customers’ account balances in the first place, why not use $831,280,000 to get to income foregone??
    I can email a pdf of this question if needed, thx

    Hi Agatka,

    To calculate income forgone, you have to first calculate the current income, which will give you the figure of: 1 040 000 000

    Current revenue: (1m custemers x 1000 transactions x $0.60 = 600m
    add
    Interest receivable by bank on negative balances (1m customers x 55% = 550 000 customers with neg. bank bal. x (-$4000 aver.bal)x 20% = 440m

    Total current income:
    660 000 000
    440 000 000
    _____________

    1,040,000,000

    I hope this help 🙂

    Sorry the total current income is:
    600 000 000 (not 660 as above)
    440 000 000
    = 1 040 000 000

    I am stuck as well. i havent got a clue what the investment foregone means? what “the bank has a number of saving account customers which, together with the banks business customers,result in a balance of net funds tha are invested by the bank and yield an anual return of 3% per year”? why is (1365000000-1040000000)*3%?
