Finally, the bank owns $5.0 million in corporate securities with an average interest rate of 6%. Next year, consumer loans will increase to $40.0 million because of a rate decrease to 10.0%, while home equity loans will increase to $32.0 million at an average interest rate of 6.5%. Unfortunately, the investment in corporate securities will decrease by 20% and the average interest rate will be only 9.0%. What is TLC's estimated change in revenues next year?
