The average daily reserves at the Fed for the 14-day reserve
maintenance period have been $30.3 million per day, and the average
vault cash for the computation period has been estimated to be $3
million per day.
a. What is the amount of the average daily
required reserves to be held by the bank during the maintenance
period?
b. Is the bank in compliance with the
requirements?
a). Average net transaction accounts over the 14-day period = (370+320+350+330+330+330+350+370+340+330+320+320+320+310)/14 = 335
Note: The reserves on Friday are carried over on Saturday and Sunday.
Reserves requirement = sum of [daily average net transaction accounts*reserve percentage]
= sum of [ (range of daily average net transaction accounts)*reserve percentage]
Daily average net transaction accounts | Range | Required reserve %age | Daily average reserves required |
8.5 | 8.5 | 0% | 0.000 |
45.8-8.5 | 37.3 | 3% | 1.119 |
335-45.8 | 289.2 | 10% | 28.920 |
30.039 |
Minimum reserves requirement is $30.039
Daily average requirement = minimum reserves requirement - average vault cash = 30.039 - 3 = 27.039 million
The bank needs to maintain $27.039 million during the maintenance period.
b). Yes, the bank is in compliance because it needs to maintain $27.039 million average reserves whereas it has average reserves of $30.3 million at the Fed.
