The Federal Reserve specifies a percentage of checkable deposits that banks hold must hold as reserves (required reserves), which is called the required reserve ratio. Excess reserves are reserves that banks hold over and above the required reserves and can make loans. Suppose that Bank A has an increase in checkable deposits of $100 million and the required reserve is 10%. How much money can Bank A create by making loans? How much money can the banking system as a...
