D2o—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, May 16', 1981 Shop around on NOW accounts NEWARK, Del. - Good deal or bad? It sounds too good to be true, but this year financial institutions have begun offering interest-bearing check ing accounts. Banks and savings and loan associations often call them NOW ac counts. NOW stands for negotiated order of withdrawal. Credit unions offer share-draft accounts which are essentially the same. Under the new law, financial institutions are able to pay a maximum of five and one-quarter percent interest on checking accounts. If interest is calculated on an average daily balance, the annual effective yield will be a little higher. That’s the good news, according to Delaware extension family living agent Pat Wilson. As for the bad news - not all consumers will make money on these accounts. Whether you will or not depends on your financial management and how much money you keep m your checking ac count. Many banks are requiring minimum balances before they pay interest. At some banks the minimum must be at least $2,000. If your account falls below the minimum, they levy a service charge. Service charges range from $1.50 to $8 per month depending on the bank. A few savings and loans have no minim urns and do not tractors DES MOINES, lA. - Massey-Ferguson has announced the latest step in its long-term reorganization plan. Beginning this fall, the manufacturer of all ME North American produced tractors will be consolidated at Detroit, Mich. MF’s Tractor Division is located there, and the company has a large plant complex in Detroit that, to this point, has been used for produc tion of two-wheel-drive tractors This consolidation will involve the transfer of four-wheel-drive tractor production, previously done at Des Moines, lowa, to Detroit. According to Glenn A. Christians, General Manager of Massey- Ferguson’s North American Sales Division, “For the purposes of long-term growth and economics of scale, it is desirable to consolidate all tractor assembly in Detroit. Christians said the company anticipates an increasing demand for the 4000 series four wheel-drive tractors And this consolidation of production will help meet that demand. levy a service charge. These are .the only accounts that are really free. Because each financial institution offers its own plan, it is important to shop around for the best deal, Wilson advises. Be sure to ask what the balance must be before the in terest is calculated.
