Question 1 Assume that the following asset values (in millions of dollars) exist in Ironmania: Federal Reserve Notes in circulation = $700; Money market mutual funds (MMMFs) held by individuals = $400; Corporate bonds = $300; Iron ore deposits = $50; Currency in commercial banks = $100; Savings deposits, including money market deposit accounts (MMDAs) = $140; Checkable deposits = $1500; Small-denominated (less than $100,000) time deposits = $100; Coins in circulation = $40. Recall, M1 equals Federal Reserve Notes in circulation plus checkable deposits plus Coins in circulation. M2 equals M1 plus Savings deposits, including Money market deposit accounts (MMDAs) plus Small-denominated (less than $100,000) time deposits plus Money Market Mutual Funds (MMMFs) held by individuals What is M1 in Ironmania? What is M2 in Ironmania? The Third National Bank has reserves of $20,000 and checkable deposits of $100,000. The reserve ratio is 20 percent. Households deposit $5000 in currency into the bank and that currency is added to reserves. Recall, to calculate checkable deposits you have to add the original checkable deposits to the new deposit. To calculate required reserves for the deposits, you have to multiply the required reserve ratio (decimal from) by checkable deposits. To calculate excess reserves, you will subtract required reserves from actual reserves. Question 2 What level of excess reserves does the bank now have?
