Suppose the required reserve ratio is 11%, currency in circulation is $285 billion, the amoun of checkable deposits is $600 billion, and excess reserves are $192 billion. Suppose the central bank is fighting rising inflation. The FOMC wants the money supply to fall by $80 billion. Assuming the ratios you calculated in question 1 are the same, calculate the size of the open market sale that would be needed to cause a change in the money supply of $80 billion.

Assume no change in currency holdings as deposits change. A banking system with target reserve ratio 0.20 starts with no excess reserves. If the central bank purchases $210 in government bonds from commercial banks, what will be the ultimate change in money supply (when banks return to having no excess reserves)? Round to two decimal places and do not enter the $ sign. If your answer is $6.114, enter 6.11. If your answer is $6.115, enter 6.12. If appropriate, remember to enter the - sign.
The Federal Reserve purchases $12 million in U.S. Treasury bonds from a bond dealer, and the dealer's bank credits the dealer's account. The required reserve ratio is 15 percent, and the bank typically lends any excess reserves immediately. Assuming that no currency leakage occurs, calculate how much will the bank be able to lend to its customers following the Fed's purchase. Smillion. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.)
You are given the following information: Bank deposits (D) 350 Currency-to-deposits ratio (c) 0.20 Required reserve ratio (rr) 0.15 Solve for the monetary base level (B) in this economy. Solve for the level of bank reserves (R) in this economy. Solve for the money supply level (M) in this economy. Suppose there is a sudden rise in the currency-to-deposits ratio, from the original level of 0.2 to a new level of 0.4. If everything else remains unchanged, find the level of monetary base needed to keep money supply fixed at the level you solved for in part c. Continue to consider c=0.4. Find the level of required reserve ratio needed to keep the monetary base and the money supply fixed at the level you solved or in parts a and c, respectively.
The Fed conducts an open-market sale of Treasury bills of $5 million. If the required reserve ratio is 0.20, what change in the money supply can be expected using the oversimplified money multiplier?
No written by hand solution
The reserve requirement is 25%, and the banking system receives a new $1,000 deposit. The bank does not want to hold excess reserves and the public does not want to hold any currency. By how much will the Money Supply ultimately rise? $6000 $3000 $5000 $4000
How much will the money supply increase if excess reserves increase by $40 million and the reserve requirement is 21 percent? Multiple Choice $4.76 million $190.48 million $1.90 million $840.00 million

Suppose that you find $100 dollars and you deposit it into your bank account as a checkable deposit. If the require reserve ratio is 20%, how much will the money supply increase due to the initial $100 deposit in the banking system.
Suppose that the central bank has increased the money supply such that there is an additional $989699 in excess reserves. If the reserve ratio is 4.0 percent, what is the maximum increase in money supply? Round your answer to the nearest dollar.
Suppose that the required reserve ratio is equal to 10%. If the currency-to-deposit ratio is fixed at 20%, what is the money multiplier? If the monetary base is $100 million, what is the money supply?
When currency is equal to $100 billion and reserves are equal to $200 billion, and we know that the money multiplier is equal to 2.5, then the money supply will be equal to
