Answer:

option (a) $5,000

Explanation:

For a vested account holder, the maximum loan an individual can take is the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their balance in the vested account.

Here,

The maximum loan = 50% of $40,000

= $20,000

also,

Vance has an outstanding loan balance = $15,000 within 12 months

Therefore,

The maximum loan available = maximum loan - Outstanding within 12 months

= $20,000 - $15,000

= $5,000

Hence,

The correct answer is option (a) $5,000
