Liquidity management in banks is a conflict between risk and return. On the one hand, the lack of liquidity, in addition to imposing heavy costs of providing resources (including borrowings from the central bank at elevated rates), may also lead banks to face with bankruptcy. On the other hand, the maintenance of excessive liquidity than needed will destroy investment opportunities and potential profitability. Therefore, for proper liquidity management, it is necessary to understand the factors affecting this sector to be able to exert control on each of the elements, and to prevent the incidence of problems or even crisis thereby optimize the bank profitability as far as possible. This study aimed to analyze the resources, expenses, and liquidity operating as the main activity parameters in Bank Shahr. During the study timeframe (2010 until the end of 2012), every 15 days was selected as the sample community, which were selected due to a 15-day trend analysis using census method and not by random sampling. The related data concerning each of the items, i.e. resources, expenses, and liquidity were collected and analyzed by linear regression based on time or periods of time. The above items were compared through analysis of the relative contribution to the total ratio and correlation analysis. The results showed that the growing trends of resources and expenses almost coincide and followed a specific trend and, in general, the growing trend of the resources was rising with a higher slope compared with those of expenses and liquidity. In addition, the growing trend of liquidity was almost identical throughout the entire period of study and no unusual trend was observed.

sector to be able to exert control on each of the elements and to prevent the incidence of problems or even crisis thereby optimize the bank profitability as far as possible. Banks depend on a variety of monetary and financial markets through numerous depositors and borrowers, and they are subject to different risks. Hence, banks have always tried to predict and to maintain their optimum amount of cash needed by using various tools and methods. This section will have an overview of the structure
of assets and liabilities, liquidity models, and the predominating risks in the banks (Fecht et al., 2011;
Calvo, 2012). This study aimed to analyze the resources, expenses, and liquidity operating as the
main parameters in one of Iranian banks named Bank Shahr. During the study period from 2010 to the end of 2012, every 15 days was selected as the sample community, which were selected due to a 15-day trend analysis using census method and not by random sampling. The related data concerning each of the items, i.e. resources, expenses, and liquidity were collected and analyzed by linear regression based on time or periods of time. The above items were compared through analysis of the relative contribution to the total ratio and correlation analysis.
2. Literature review
Lovin (2013) investigated the effect of a liquidity shock induced by depositors' behavior on bank portfolio management during financial crises in a system without deposit insurance. The study detected that banks reacted to the liquidity shock sensitively through an increase in their cash holdings not by liquidating bank loans but by selling securities in the financial market. In addition, in their study, banks exposed to local financial contagion adjusted the liquidity of their portfolio mainly by actively selling and buying their securities in the financial market. Distinguin et al. (2013) studied the relationship between bank regulatory capital and bank liquidity measured from on-balance sheet positions for European and US publicly traded commercial banks. They reported that banks decrease their regulatory capital ratios when they encountered higher illiquidity as defined in the Basel III accords or when they created more liquidity. Imai and Takarabe (2011) investigated the causal impacts of liquidity shocks on credit supply by the endogenous relationship between loan demand and liquidity position of banks. They reported that during the period of transition from a blanket guarantee to a partial guarantee, weak banks influenced from a large outflow of partially insured time deposits. Hauck and Vollmer (2013) analyzed a government's incentives to provide financial assistance to a public bank hit by a liquidity shock. They reported that discretionary decisions about emergency liquidity assistance could result in either excessively small or excessively large liquidity injections in a wide variety of circumstances. In addition, adding a lender of last resort does not generally ensure a socially optimal policy. Balasubramanyan and VanHoose (2013) performed a a dynamic banking model survey and their results showed that imposing an LCR constraint generally had theoretically ambiguous impacts on the stability of banks’ optimal dynamic balance-sheet paths.
3. Research hypotheses
The proposed study of this paper investigates the relationship between the resource components with the expenses and liquidity in banking industry and the study is implemented on the information of one of Iranian banks named “Bank Shahr”. The study also investigates the trend on bank’s resources, expenses, liquidity and the relationships between these items. The survey collects 15-day period information over the period 2010-2012. Since there are 24-point data, we end up having 72 sample study. The study uses descriptive, correlation analysis and simple regression analysis to examine the data. Fig. 1 shows different expenses/resources. For trend analysis, linear regression model was used as Y = f (t), where Y is each of resource item, expenses, liquidity, total resources, total expenses, and t is the 15-day periods every year.

4.1. Description of the findings
As mentioned earlier, each of the bank’s resources and expenses were classified into nine categories. At the beginning of the first and the fifteenth of each month, cash balances were collected using bank finance management reporting software and they were classified via Excel spreadsheet. According to the descriptive statistical data, the following results were obtained using SPSS software.
- The mean and median values are close together for most variables. This feature was not optimal among the variables of debt to the central bank, receivables from the central bank and the government
and other resources, loans from foreign exchange reserves, civic facilities, and other assets and
expenses. This was due to the presence of large changes in the remains, and also to the unchanged
remains during the past few successive months.
- With the exception of cash and maturities for letters of credit and guarantees having a skewedness to the left, the remaining variables skew to the right because their coefficients of skewedness is positive.
1- Types of deposits including loan bona deposits, prolonged and other deposits 2- Governmental deposits including instant and prolonged deposits from banks 3- Facilities received from central bank or other banks
4- Other resources (other liabilities) such as pre-pays by governmental and non-governmental customers and facilities from foreign exchange reserves
5- Capital resources, including shareholders' equity and incomes (including interest and commitment of funds received, commissions and other incomes)
1- Receivables from central bank and government
2- Public and private facilities and their related receivables past due
3- Documentary credits and guarantees for debtors and their related receivables past due
4- Other expenses (other assets) including investments and partnerships, immovable property, intangible and other assets
5- Both operational and non-operational costs
