Suppose First Main Street Bank, Second Republic Bank, and Third Fidelity Bank all have zero excess reserves. The required reserve ratio is 20%. The Federal Reserve buys a government bond worth $750,000 from Lorenzo, a customer of First Main Street Bank. He deposits the money into his checking account at First Main Street Bank.
