You just deposited $4,000 in cash into a checking account at the local bank. Assume that banks lend out all excess reserves
and there are no leaks in the banking system. That is, all money lent by banks gets deposited in the banking system. Round
your answers to the nearest dollar.
If the reserve requirement is 20%, how much will your
deposit increase the total value of checkable bank deposits?
If the reserve requirement is 8%, how much will your deposit
increase the total value of checkable deposits?
Increasing the reserve requirement
decreases
the
money supply.

- If banks decide to hold some of their excess reserves instead of lending them all out, then: A) the money multiplier will be less than 1 divided by the required reserve ratio. B) depositors will have to borrow more in order to increase the money supply. C) the money multiplier becomes 1 divided by the excess reserves. D) a loan of $1 will lead to a change in the money supply by a multiple amount equal to 1 divided by the required reserve ratio.arrow_forwardSuppose again that checkable deposits started off at $400,000 in First Main Street Bank, the required reserve ratio is 15%, and no excess reserves and no cash leakage exist. You know from the previous step that, due to the sale of securities by the Fed, the money supply in the economy contracted from $400,000 to $392,000. But the contraction of the money supply does not stop with First Main Street Bank. It moves to other banks. The loan repayment that Charles made to First Main Street Bank was written on a check Second Republic Bank issued. Then, when the check cleared, the reserves of Second Republic Bank declined, and Second Republic Bank found itself reserve deficient as well. It applied loan repayments to its reserve deficiency position. The effect continued with other banks and so on. The initial removal of funds in the amount of $8,000 will cause the money supply to contract by $______. Therefore, the money supply is $______. (Hint: round the results of your calculations to the…arrow_forwardSay that First Commercial Bank has reserves of $100, loans at $400 and checkable deposits of $500. The required reserve ratio is 10%. If the bank has a deposit outflow of $40, is the bank in violation of the required reserve ratio? What is the maximum amount of deposit outflow the bank can sustain without violating the ratio?arrow_forward
- Assume that bank deposits are $3,200 billion, the required reserve ratio is 10%, and currency outstanding is $400 billion. Calculate the money multiplier. What can the Fed do to decrease the money supply by $100 million? Assume that banks do not hold excess reservesarrow_forwardThe task I am struggling with: Tracy Williams deposits $500 that was in her sock drawer into a checking account at the local bank. The reserve ratio is 10%. a) how dies the deposit initially change the T-account of the local bank? How does it change the money supply? b) If the bank maintains a reserve ratio of 10%, how will it respond to the new deposit? c) if every time the bank makes a loan, the loan results in a new checkable bank deposit in a different bank equal to the amount of the loan, by how much could the total money supply in the economy expand in response to Tracy´s initial cash deposit of $500? Thank you very much for your help.arrow_forwardSuppose you win on a scratch-off lottery ticket and you decide to put all of your $3,500 winnings in the bank. The reserve requirement is 5%. How much maximum of new money will be created (maximum amount of new checking deposits created by the banking system) as a result of your bank deposit? Hint: do not count your initial deposit as part of increase. Number $70000 ☐ ☐ Incorrect. The bank can only loan out excess reserves. Calculate the excess reserves after the lottery winnings were deposited, than multiple that number by the money multiplier. Which events could cause the increase in the money supply to be less than its potential? Check all that apply. Some loan recipients choose to hold some cash instead of depositing all of it in banks. All money loaned out is deposited back into the banking system. Banks decide to keep some excess reserves on hand. Banks choose to loan out all excess reserves.arrow_forward
- A deposit of $100 was made to the bank as we know the money supply won't increase until the bank loans the $100. If the required reserve ratio is 6%, how much will the money supply ultimately increase once this new deposit has gone all the way through the system? What is the money multiplier in this case?arrow_forwardThe banking system has $5,000 in reserve, $45,000 in loans, and $50,000 in deposits. Currently the reserve requirement is 10%. If the Fed lowers reserve requirement to 5%, the banking system converts 75% excess reserves to loans, but borrowers return only 60% of these funds to the banking system as deposits. What is the maximum amount of loans the banking system could make?arrow_forwardIf you deposit $40 into a checking account, and your bank has a 10% reserve requirement, the bank's excess reserves will rise by $arrow_forward

Suppose you hold 15 million required reserves and 45 million excess reserves at the central bank. The total interest payment on reserves from the central bank is 0.3%.
