You can use above example to plug in your real tax bracket percentages to get your own number. It's a bit difficult to show the calculation of interest on here but you can find interest calculator on web.

All good but technically the FDIC has no time limit to reimburse you. "As soon as possible" might be a while in a major crash, although at that point we probably have bigger worries.
an alternative is to buy bills/notes directly w/ treasury. few bps lower but eliminates risk of lending to financial institution since govt can just print money for you.
Thanks

3m : 4.15%
6m : 4.56%
1y : 4.68%
Advantages:
1) can bid direct on treasurydirect.gov at auction (avoid broker and banks / fees when buying and holding to maturity).
2) marketable by transferring to a broker dealer and selling it in the open market (relatively tight bid/offer and penalty is based of the market yield at the time vs CDs where you pay penalties)
3) EXEMPT AT THE STATE AND LOCAL TAX LEVEL!
For those of us in high tax states like NY it can mean you save 12% in tax on your interest.
