d. you must deposit that much money into the account every month or your account will be closed
please select the best answer from the choices provided
a
b
c
d

Explanation:

A minimum balance requirement for a savings account means the account holder must maintain at least that amount in the account. Failing to do so typically results in fees, as stated in option a. Option b is incorrect because interest rates do not increase to replenish balances. Option c describes an initial deposit requirement, not an ongoing minimum balance. Option d is wrong because minimum balance does not require monthly deposits of that amount to avoid account closure.

Answer:

a. If you do not keep at least that much money in the account, you will be assessed fees
