2. What is an individual checking account?

Explanation

An individual checking account is a personal account that is owned and operated by a single individual. This means that only one person has access to the account and is responsible for managing its transactions and funds. It is different from a joint account, which allows multiple individuals to have ownership and access to the account.

Submit
3. Funds in a checking account are accessed through

Explanation

The correct answer is "Both A & B" because funds in a checking account can be accessed through both checks and ATMs. Checks can be written to make payments or transfer funds from the account, while ATMs allow account holders to withdraw cash, make deposits, and perform other banking transactions. Therefore, both options A and B are valid ways to access funds in a checking account.

Submit
4. This is not found on a check.

Explanation

The social security number of the account owner is not found on a check. Checks typically include the account owner's name and address, but they do not include personal identification numbers such as the social security number. This information is usually kept confidential and not printed on checks for security reasons.

Submit
5. Which of these is a type of endorsement?

Explanation

All of these options are types of endorsements. A blank endorsement is when the payee signs the back of a check without specifying a particular recipient, making it payable to whoever possesses it. A restrictive endorsement specifies the conditions under which the check can be transferred, such as "For Deposit Only." A special endorsement, also known as an endorsement in full, transfers the check to a specific person or organization. Therefore, all three options are valid types of endorsements.

Submit
6. Which of these is not a type of checking account?

Explanation

All of the options listed are types of checking accounts. Therefore, the correct answer is "All of these are" not a type of checking account.

Submit
7. What is the number of a checking account also known as?

Explanation

The number of a checking account is commonly referred to as the account number. This number uniquely identifies a specific checking account and is used for various banking transactions such as deposits, withdrawals, and transfers. It is different from a check serial number, which is a unique identifier for each individual check. An ATM pin, on the other hand, is a personal identification number used for accessing an ATM or making transactions. Therefore, the correct answer is account number.

Submit
8. What are the steps in writing a check?
Date, amount, payee, signature

Explanation

The correct answer is 1, 3, 2, 4. The first step in writing a check is to fill in the date, followed by writing the amount in numbers and words. Then, the payee's name is written on the line provided. Finally, the check is signed by the account holder to authorize the payment.

Submit
9. Which of these is not a credit?

Explanation

The given question asks to identify which of the options is not a credit. A credit refers to an addition of funds to an account. Both interest earned and cash deposit are examples of credits as they increase the balance in an account. However, an overdraft fee is a charge imposed when a customer withdraws more money than is available in their account, resulting in a negative balance. Therefore, an overdraft fee is not a credit, but rather a fee or charge imposed by the bank.

Submit
10. Which of these is not a debit?

Explanation

Interest gained is not a debit because it represents the money earned on an investment or savings account. In accounting terms, debits are used to record decreases in assets or increases in liabilities. However, interest gained represents an increase in assets, as it adds to the overall value of the account. Therefore, interest gained is not a debit.
