More than ever, people want convenience and flexibility in how they buy things and make payments—and a profit on their deposits, too. This CD-ROM guides users through the ins and outs of savings and checking accounts, the starting place for anyone interested in getting money from MAC machines, paying bills by mail, and making profits on bank-sponsored investments. Modules include… • How Does a Bank Operate?—summarizes the types of banks, what banks need to exist, how banks make a profit, and banking services. • What Do You Need to Open an Account?—covers the things to bring when applying for an account and how signature cards are used. • Savings Accounts—defines what they are for, how they work, and types, such as statement savings, passbook accounts, CDs, and money market accounts. • Checking Accounts—outlines what they are for, how they work, and where a check goes after it’s used as a payment. • Alternate Ways to Bank: ATMs, Debit Cards, and Online Banking—introduces additional ways to access accounts. An interactive exercise on how to write a check and fill in a check register is also included. A Meridian Production. Can be used with both Windows and Macintosh.
