Homework Answers
Option C. $9 million
Explanation: The currency not deposited by people in bank = 50% of 10 million = $5 million
The remaining $5 million was deposited din the bank. Out of this $5 million deposit, the bank keeps 20% of it i.e. 20% of 5 million = 1 million as reserve.
So, the bank loans out the remaining $4 million to people.
So, total currency hold by people = $4 million + $5 million = $4 million.

Assume that banks do not hold excess reserves and that households do not hold currency
Assume that banks do not hold excess reserves and that households do not hold currency, so the only form of money is demand deposits. To simplify the analysis, suppose the banking system has total reserves of $400. Determine the money multiplier and the money supply for each reserve requirement listed in the following table. A higher reserve requirement is associated with a _______ money supply. Suppose the Federal Reserve wants to increase the money supply by $200. Again, you can assume that...
