No More Books is contemplating canceling the agreement and dividing its eastern region so that two other banks will handle its business. Banks A and $B$ will each handle $$2\mathrm{.}2$ million of collections a day; and each requires a compensating balance of $$225,000.$ No More Books' financial management expects that collections will be accelerated by one day if the eastern region is divided.
