Statement: Should there be only one rate of interest for term deposits of varying durations in banks?

Arguments:

1. No. People will refrain from keeping money for longer duration resulting into reduction of liquidity level of banks.

2. Yes. This will be much simple for the common people and they may be encouraged to keep more money in banks.

  • A.Only argument I is strong
  • B.Only argument II is strong
  • C.Either I or II is strong
  • D.Neither I nor II is strong
  • E.Both I and II are strong

Answer: A

Correct answer: Only argument I is strong

Argument 1 explains why the rates differ: a higher return for a longer deposit is what persuades people to leave money with a bank, and without it the banks would lose their long-term funds. Argument 2 offers simplicity, which is a convenience rather than a reason. Only I is strong.
