Jackson's Thriftway currently processes all of its credit sales at its Seguin, Texas, head- quarters. The firm is considering establishing a lockbox arrangement with a Chicago bank to process payments from customers in 12 midwestern states. Average mailing time for customers from this region is currently 4 days. It is expected that the system will reduce this to 2.5 days. Check processing and clearing time would be reduced from 4 days to 1.5 days with the lockbox arrangement. Annual collections from this region are $200 million. The lockbox arrangement would reduce the compensating balance requirement at the firm's Seguin bank by $400,000 and reduce annual pay- ment processing costs at the Seguin office by $25,000. Funds released by the lockbox arrangement can be invested elsewhere in the firm to earn 14 percent before taxes.
