Answer:
Loan given = 7m x 80% = $5,600,000
Compensating balance = 5,600,000 x 0.15 = ($840,000)
Required Reserve on Compensating Balance = $840,000 x 0.05 = 42,000
Actual loan given = $4,802,000
Interest amount on the loan given = 5,600,000 x 5% = $280,000
Fee charges = $12,280
Total charges = $292,280 Expected rate of return = $292,280 /$4,802,000 = 6.087%
