Suppose a customer makes a $2,280 cash withdrawal from Bank A. If the reserve requirement was
total decrease in the money supply in the
6 percent, the deposit would ultimately lead to a
economy, if all banks in the system lend out 100 percent of their excess reserves.
O $2,143.20
O $2,280
O $28,500
O $35,720
$38,000
Now, suppose the reserve ratio in the banking system changes to 20% and a $100,000 is deposited into the first bank in
the system. What will be the immediate excess reserves for that first bank in the system and by how much can the total
money supply in the system expand?
O $100,000; $1,900,000.
O $80,000; $400,000
$90,000; $900,000.
O $10,000; $100,000.
