Explanation / Answer
Total liabilities and owner's equity = Total assets = $8600
Equity = Total liabilities and owner's equity - Total liabilities
= $8600 - 2100 - 800 - 200 - 500 - 1600 - 1000
= $2400
From the GAP you just calculated, and the information available here, we conclude that the GAP provides a Good sign about this bank's health because (in dollar terms) Fewer assets will be repriced than liabilities.
Only 20% of the loan is onperforming and the requirement ratio to be maintained is 10% i.e the bank will have to maintain a minmum of $680 (6800 x 10%)
Apart from that there are expenses of $130 whereas there is income of $260.
All this shows a positive sign for the Bank.
