Select one:
a. creditor, collateral, borrower
b. borrower, creditor, collateral
c. credit union, loan, creditor
d. loan, collateral, creditor
Answer: a - creditor, collateral, borrower.
The automobile dealership loans money to the man to buy a car. So, the automobile dealership is the creditor.
Collateral refers to anything that may be pledged in return for money, with the condition that the pledged item will be forfeited if the money is not repaid. Since the dealership will take possession of the car if the man fails to repay the money, it is a collateral.
The man who bought the car, owes money to the automobile dealership as he bought the car on a loan. So, he is a borrower.
