Sampson corporation has an agreement with third national


Sampson Corporation has an agreement with Third National Bank whereby the bank handles $10 million in collections a day and requires a $1,000,000 compensating balance. Sampson is contemplating cancelling the agreement and dividing its eastern region so that two other banks will handle its business. Banks A and B will each handle $5 million of collections a day, and each requires a compensating balance of $600,000. Sampson's financial management expects that collections will be accelerated by two days if the eastern region is divided. Sampson's pre-tax opportunity cost is 10 percent. Should Sampson adopt the new system? Show computations.
