Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For eac

22、h of them, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.Passage 1Larger banks in large cities often specialize in particular ancillary services in addition to the bank deposit services they supply. They may have foreign branches in order to provide banking services in particular foreign countries. La

23、rge banks may sell consumer credit card services; that is, they allow individual banks to join their credit card network. They may be brokers in the federal funds markets, a market for short-term loans in which commercial banks participate. Banks may specialize in handling trust agreements. Large ba

24、nks often provide many of these services for their depositors as well as selling these ancillary services to other banks. This provision of services to other banks is called correspondent banking.The degree of competition in the market for banking services may be related to the number of depository

25、intermediaries in a particular locality. If there is one commercial bank and no thrifts in a small town in a remote area, most of the residents may deposit their funds in the local bank. If there are no financial intermediaries offering similar services, such as business loans, the local bank suppli

26、es most of these loans. In most areas, other financial intermediaries and nearby banks compete for loan business. Larger loans made to larger local businesses may not be supplied solely by banks in the local area. Unlike the cost of transporting physical property, the cost of transporting money by c

27、heck is negligible. The capital market, the market for borrowing funds, cannot easily be subdivided by geographical areas. This consideration makes the measurement of competition for large-loan business in a given geographical area a difficult problem.However, in some states one or several bank hold

28、ing companies own a significant number of banks in the state. This subject is discussed subsequently.（分数：5.00）(1).What are large banks in large cities engaged in besides supplying bank deposit services?（分数：1.00）A.They are engaged in international trade.B.They do some particular business with foreign

29、ers.C.They provide some specific ancillary services.D.They establish correspondent banks in small cities.(2).What do large banks allow individual banks to do?（分数：1.00）A.To sell credit cards to consumers.B.To join their credit card network.C.To provide other banking services.D.To specialize in federa

30、l funds.(3).What is called correspondent banking?（分数：1.00）A.The bank which provides additional banking services.B.The provision of banking services to other banks.C.The particular ancillary services provided to foreign countries.D.The bank issuing credit cards.(4).Who may supply business loans in a

31、remote area if there is no financial intermediaries offering such services?（分数：1.00）A.The local bank in the area.B.Business companies.C.Brokers in the Federal Funds.D.Correspondent banks.(5).What will happen if there is one commercial bank and no thrifts in a small town?（分数：1.00）A.The residents will

32、 deposit their money with the bank.B.The local bank will provide business loans to the commercial bank.C.Some large banks will transport money by check to the bank.D.People in the area will not deposit money with the bank.Passage 2Liabilities are obligations a company owes to outside parties. They r

33、epresent rights of others to money or services of the company. Examples include bank loans, debts to suppliers and debts to employees. On the balance sheet, liabilities are generally broken down into current liabilities and long-term liabilities.Current liabilities are those obligations that are usu

34、ally paid within the year, such as accounts payable, interest on long-term debts, taxes payable, and dividends payable. Because current liabilities are usually paid with current assets, as an investor it is important to examine the degree to which current assets exceed current liabilities.The most p

35、ervasive item in the current liability section of the balance sheet is accounts payable. Accounts payable are debts owed to suppliers for the purchase of goods and services on an open account. Almost all firms buy some or all of their goods on account. Therefore, you will often see accounts payable

36、on most balance sheets.Long-term debt is a liability of a period greater than one year. It usually refers to loans a company takes out. These debts are often paid in installments. If this is the case, the portion to be paid off in the current year is considered a current liability.That wraps up our

37、short review of liabilities. You only have one piece of the balance sheet left to learn shareholders equity. Remember that assets minus liabilities equals shareholders equity.Shareholders equity is the value of a business to its owners after all of its obligations have been met. This net worth belon

38、gs to the owners. Shareholders equity generally reflects the amount of capital the owners invested plus any profits that the company generates that are subsequently reinvested in the company. This reinvested income is called retained earnings.（分数：5.00）(1).Current liabilities may include the followin

39、g items _.（分数：1.00）A.taxes payableB.dividends payableC.accounts payableD.all of the above(2).Which of the following statements is true? Accounts payable are _.（分数：1.00）A.debts owed to suppliersB.related to purchases of goods on an open accountC.current liabilitiesD.all of the above(3).The phrase “on

40、 an open account“ in the third paragraph probably means “_“.（分数：1.00）A.free of chargeB.on a credit basisC.on a cash basisD.on a bargain basis(4).The following statements concerning long-term debt are true except that _.（分数：1.00）A.long-term debt is a liability of a period longer than one yearB.long-t

41、erm debts are paid in installmentsC.despite of different payment plans, long-term debts are never classified as current liabilitiesD.the loan borrowed by the company is a typical example of long-term debt(5).The phrase “retained earnings“ in the last paragraph probably refers to “_“.（分数：1.00）A.the n

42、et worth belonging to the creditors and ownersB.part of the profits reinvested in the companyC.the amount of money the owners investedD.the amount of money owed to the employeesPassage 3Date: 26 Jan. 1993From: the Kwangtung provincial bank, H.
