Sample Commercial Checking Account Earnings Credit Calculation
Definitions:
Average Ledger Collected: Balance Calculated by adding the Ledger Balance for each day in the month, divided by the total days in the month.
Reserve Requirement
Federal Regulations require that all banks hold a reserve equiva-
lent of 10% of their total checking account collected balances in
a non-interest bearing account.
Earnings Credit
Balance Calculated by subtracting the 10% Reserve Requirement
from the Average Ledger Balance. This balance is used
to compute the earnings credit.
Earnings Credit Rate
Federal Regulations prohibit banks from paying interest on
corporate checking accounts. Banks are allowed to offer non-
cash credit based on account balances to offset charges.
Sample Calculation:
1. Your Earnings Credit Balance is Calculated:
Average Ledger Balance $7,000.00
Less the Reserve Requirement (10%) ($700.00)
Equals the Earnings Credit Balance $6,300.00
2. Your Earnings Credit is Calculated:
Earnings Credit Balance $5,760.00
Multiplied by Earnings Credit Rate* (annual rate) 2%
Multiplied by the number of days in the statement cycle. 30
Divided by 365 ÷ 365
Equals your Earnings Credit $9.46
Your Earnings Credit is used to offset the service charges and transaction fees your account has accrued for the month.

Funds are FDIC insured:
As of July 21st, 2010, The permanent standard insurance amount is $250,000 per depositor.
"With this permanent increase of deposit insurance coverage to $250,000, depositors with CDs above $100,000 but below $250,000 will no longer have to worry about losing coverage on those CDs maturing beyond 2013. We strongly encourage all bank depositors who have questions about their insurance coverage to go to our Web site at www.fdic.gov and use our Electronic Deposit Insurance Estimator (EDIE) or call our toll-free number at 1-877-ASK-FDIC. Insured deposits provide the comfort and peace of mind to depositors that their money is 100 percent safe – provided they keep their deposit balances within the insurance limits," said FDIC Chairman Sheila C. Bair.
FDIC Guarantee Program:
As of December 19th, 2008, Border State Bank is participating in the FDIC’s Transaction Account Guaranty Program. Under this program, through December 31, 2010, all non-interest bearing transactions (including Border State Bank’s NOW checking account) are fully guaranteed by the FDIC for the entire amount in the account. Coverage under the Transaction Account Guaranty Program is in addition to and separate from the coverage available from the FDIC’s general deposit insurance rules.
