rata basis and recorded as expense. Upon repurchase the securities are reinstated at their

chase price and the differential of the contracted purchase and resale price is amortized over the
period of their contract and recorded as income.
4.5 Advances

cific provisions for possible loan losses have been made as considered necessary after taking into con-
sideration the realizable value of assets held by the bank as security.
4.6 Operating fixed assets and depreciation
