Formulas and Calculations
Average Collected Balance
The Average Collected Balance is the average daily balance less any check hold amounts. This balance is used to calculate the investable balance amount to be used in the earnings credit allowance calculation.
Average Daily Balance - Average Check Holds = Average Collected Balance
Investable Balance
The Investable Balance is the balance available to calculate the earnings credit allowance against after considering the balance required to be retained for reserve requirements.
Average Collected Balance - (Average Collected Balance * Reserve Rate) = Investable Balance
Example: Assuming Reserve Rate is 10.00%.
57,331.67 - (57,331.67 * 10.00) = 51,598.50
Earnings Credit Allowance
The Earnings Credit Allowance is the credit given to the member for maintaining balances to support the costs of services.
((Investable Balance * Earnings Rate) ÷ 365 or 366) * Number of Days in Month = Earnings Credit Allowance
Example: Assuming Earning Rate is.85%.
((57,331.67 * .85) / 365) * 30 days = 36.048 round up to 36.05
Cost of Service
The Cost of Service is the unit price times the number of times the service is used.
Quantity * Unit Price = Cost of Service
Total Balance Required
The Total Balance Required is the balance required to support the total costs of the services provided.
Balance Required Per Unit
The Balance Required Per Unit is the balance required per use of the service provided to avoid the fee assessment.
Cost (Unit Price * Tiered Pricing Structure) / # days in a month * # days in a year / Earnings Credit Rate / 100% - Reserve Requirement
