Company has an agreement with Sure Bank in which the bank handles P 5 million in collections a day and requires a P 200,000 compensating balance. Prosperous is thinking of canceling the agreement and dividing its western region so that two other banks will handle its business instead. Bank A will handle P 2 million a day of collections, requiring a compensating balance of P100,000, and bank B will handle the other P 3 million a day, asking for a compensating balance of P 300,000.
