As a minimum, how often must standard reporting designator (SRD) data and minimum reserve authorization (MRA) levels be validated?
Correct Answer
D. Annually.
Explanation
Standard reporting designator (SRD) data and minimum reserve authorization (MRA) levels must be validated annually. This means that these data and levels need to be reviewed and verified for accuracy and compliance once every year. This ensures that the SRD data and MRA levels are up to date and reflect the current state of the organization's reporting and reserve requirements. Quarterly, semiannual, and monthly validations would not provide the same level of thoroughness and may result in outdated or incorrect information.
42.
When is the S04 run in item number sequence?
Correct Answer
C. After each semiannual review.
Explanation
The S04 is run in item number sequence after each semiannual review. This suggests that the semiannual review triggers the need for the S04 to be run, and it is done in a sequential order based on item numbers. The other options do not provide a clear trigger or sequence for the S04 run.
