Explanation of Solution
The Federal Reserve is the central bank of the US economy, and it is usually known as the Fed. The Fed has the responsibility to keep the economy controlled from the fluctuations, and it has to control the money supply of the economy through its
It is given that the economy contains 2,000 bills that have a value of $1 each. So, the
Concept introduction:
Money: It is any item that is accepted as the payment for the goods and services by the economy.
Banks: They are the financial institutions that accept the deposits of money from the general public and use this money to provide loans to the public.
Fed: It is the central bank of the US, and it has the responsibility of controlling the economy.
Subpart (b):
The money supply of the economy.
Subpart (b):

Explanation of Solution
The banks hold all the deposits as the excess reserves and people deposit all the currency with the banks, then the total deposits with the bank becomes $2,000, and since no loan is provided by the banks, the total reserves of the economy remain the same, which means that the total quantity of money in the economy remains as $2,000 itself. No new money is created.

Explanation of Solution
In the case when people hold $1,000 with them and deposits the remaining $1,000 with the banks where the banks maintain 100 percent reserves and nothing is provided as loans to the public, there will be no new currency generated and thus the total quantity of money in the economy will be the summation of the currency held by the public and the currency held by the banks. Thus, it remains the same $2,000.

Subpart (d):
![Check Mark](/static/check-mark.png)
Explanation of Solution
In the case when the banks have only 10 percent reserves and use the remaining to provide loans to the public, there will be a multiplier effect on the money supply and the multiplier value can be calculated as follows:
So, the value of the money multiplier in the economy is 10. Thus, when the people hold all the money as
Thus, the total money supply in the economy will be $20,000.

![Check Mark](/static/check-mark.png)
Explanation of Solution
In the case when the people hold equal amount of currency with them and with the bank
as demand deposits, since the reserve requirement ratio is 10 percent, in order to calculate the quantity of money, the following two equations must be satisfied:
and
We can substitute the first equation in the second equation as follows:
Thus, the deposits held with the banks are $1818.18. Since the public hold equal money with them and with the banks, the people will hold the same quantity with them which is $1818.18. Thus, the total quantity of money can be calculated by summating the two as follows:
Thus, the total quantity of money in the economy is equal to $3636.36.

You are a purchasing manager at a large car dealership in a busy urban area. You purchase on average 250 cars monthly for the dealership. People are buying new and used cars from your dealership regularly, and business is doing well. Most of your customers are average middle-income households, and they typically purchase bigger cars that are pricey. Your boss, Natalya, invited you for lunch to discuss the next big purchase in preparation for the big Summer sales event. While chatting about the business, Natalya told you the following: "While surfing social media today, I read a government report that says the economy is growing and inflation is rising. As the economy continues to grow due to an increase in consumption by consumers, the prices are expected to rise to a higher level than usual. The report also said that the increase in consumption has caused a shortage in the auto industry, which I think might be good for us (or bad, I don’t know.)…arrow_forward1.

The decline in economic activities is expected to affect all major industries." Your sister raised her eyebrows and showed an expression of confusion as she looked at you and stated, "Oh dear, what should I do now as an HR manager?
