Consider the balance sheet of the following bank.

                                           Chase

     ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Reserves        3000       Checkable Deposits      5000

     Loans             7000       Savings and Time Deposits 8000  

     Bond Holdings      4000      Equity               1000

     Using balance sheets, show all the balance sheet steps of Chase making a loan of $1000. Provide a brief explanation for each step and assume that the loan check is re-deposited in another bank (provide a balance sheet for that bank as well). Verify how the money supply (M2) changes as a result

Depreciation is a tough concept since there may be so many factors associated with it. The IRS changes the tax deductions given for depreciation on a regular basis. On a larger purchase the tax deduction may be significant. How much of a factor do you think depreciation should be on the decision to move forward with a project? For example, if the tax benefit is greater in the following year, should management hold off on the purchase? Do you feel that managers understand this concept well enough to include it in their decision making process?
