    Bank "B"

    Explanation:

    Bank A is not secured under FDIC, so do not choose bank A.

    Bank C is fully secured under FDIC rules but has a huge minimum deposit of $10,000, if we deposit money in this bank, we will have lost our opportunity cost to invest this money and get the benefit.

    Bank B is also fully secured under FDIC and has a low minimum deposit of $50, So bank "B" will be chosen.
