Question

Bill wants to open a checking account to pay bills from and a savings account to cover overdrafts and other emergencies. He wants online services, and a debit card. He analyzes the following statements of fees from State Bank and Common. Based upon past experience, Bill expects to accidentally overdraft the account 2 times per year, unfortunately, due to unexpected charges and miscommunications. He expects no 2nd copies of statements, and to use network ATMs 4 times per month with State Bank (due to less in-network ATMs being available), or 2 times per month with Common Bank. He has $2500 to deposit to an emergency savings account for overdraft protection, and thinks that the balance will be enough to cover most all overdrafts in the future if automatic transfers are made when needed. Based on the tables of fees, which bank is expected to cost the least amount in fees per year? a. State Bank is expected to cost the least. b. Common Bank is expected to cost the least. c. State Bank and Common Bank would have the same costs for Bill. d. The fees cannot be estimated in advance. \

Answer 1

The correct option is A.
Based on the table of fees, all the banking activities that Bill want to execute will cost more in the common bank compare with the state bank, which has a lower add up charges.
