Tim deposits the funds immediately into his checking account at Walls Fergo Bank. Then Walls Fergo Bank lends out all of its new excess reserves to Edison, who writes a check to Crystal, who deposits the money into her account at PJMorton Bank. PJMorton lends out all of its new excess reserves to Hilary in turn.
 
Fill in the following table to show the effect of this ongoing chain of events at each bank. Enter each answer to the nearest dollar.

Assume this process continues, with each successive loan deposited into a checking account and no banks keeping any excess reserves. Under these assumptions, the $1,500,000 injection into the money supply results in an overall increase of ( $750,000 or $6,00,000 or $7,500,000) in demand deposits.
