    On the offer of Bank A, the total return (annual) for deposit holder

    = 2%of 1000 + 100 = 120 dollar

    On the offer of Bank B, the total return (annual) for deposit holder

    = 5%of 1000 + 50 = 100 dollar

    Hence the offer of bank A is better in terms of return.

    The Answer is Bank A

    Explanation:

    Bank A is offering = (Card Value + interest on saving account i. e $100+1000*2%/12) = $101.667

    Bank B is offering = (Card Value + interest on saving account i. e $50+1000*5%/12) = $54.1667

    So the Answer is Bank A because the debit card value of Bank A is greater than Bank B. Therefore overall benefit and return is better of Bank A.
