Assume we know that
D = 900
r = 10%
C = 500
ER = 7
If the Fed buys $350 worth of securities by how much will the overall money supply increase in the economy?
The change in money supply can be calculated as:
Change in Money Supply = Money Multiplier (M1) x Change in Monetary Base
Here, Change in Monetary Base = $ 350 .....Given
We need to calculate the Money Multiplier using the below mentioned formula:
M1 = [1 + (C/D)] / (R + ER/D + C/D)
Where, C = Currency in Circulation = 500 .....Given
R = Reserve Ratio = 10% .....Given
D = Deposits = 900 .....Given
ER = Excess Reserves = 7 .....Given
Using this formula and the values mentioned above, lets calculate M1
M1 = [1 + (500/900)] / (10% + 7/900 + 500/900)
M1 = [1+0.55] / (0.1 + 0.0077 + 0.55)
M1 = 1.55 / 0.6633
M1 = 2.345
Using this, M1 & the Change in Monetary Base given as $350, we can calculate the change in Monetary Supply.
Change in Money Supply = Money Multiplier (M1) x Change in Monetary Base
Change in Money Supply = 2.345 x 350
Change in Money Supply = $820.77 ....Answer
Overall money supply increase in the economy is $820.77.
Question 44 (1 point) Assume that, in the process of an open market operation, the Bank of Canada buys $100 billion worth of government bonds of chartered banks. Assuming the desired reserve ratio is 20%, in this process, a) Bank of Canada's assets increase by $100b. b) Bank of Canada's assets decrease by $100b. c) chartered banks' deposits at the Bank of Canada decrease by $100b. d) chartered banks' deposits at the Bank of Canada increase by $100b. e) chartered...
d. $200 reserve ratio is 5 percent and the bank has $1,000 in deposits. Its reserves amount to S5. S50. c. $95. d. $950 Suppose banks desire to hold no excess reserves and that the Fed has set a reserve requirement of 10 percent. If you deposit $9,000 into First Jayhawk Bank, a. First Jayhawk's required reserves increase by $900. b. First Jayhawk will be able to lend out $8,100 c. First Jayhawk's assets and liabilities both will increase by...
The total money supply M has two components: bank deposits D and cash holdings C which we assume to bear a constant ratio C/D money H is defined as the sum of cash holdings held by the public and the reserves held by the banks. Bank reserves are a fraction of bank deposits, determined by the reserve ratio r, 0 <r<1 c, 0 < c< 1. The high-powered (a) Express the money supply M as a function of high-powered money...
Assume the money supply is $850 billion, total deposits are $500 billion and the required reserve-deposit ratio is 10%, if the Central Bank purchases $60 million worth of Treasury bills, what is the greatest amount by which total money supply could change? Do you expect that money supply would actually change by that much? Find the maximum value of deposit multiplier for this economy. Explain, why this value is the maximum value.

Discussion Questions for Tuesday, Apr. 23 1. Suppose the Fed conducts $10 million open market purchase from Bank A. If Bank A and all the other banks use reserves to purchase only securities, what will happen to deposits in the banking system and how much does it expand? 2. Let's assume that in a hypothetical economy currency in circulation is $600 billion, the amount of checkable deposits is $900 billion, excess reserves are $15 billion and required reserve ratio is...
7. The reserve requirement, open market operations, and the moneysupply 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. Reserve Requirement (Percent) Money Supply (Dollars) Simple Money Multiplier A higher reserve requirement is associated with...
My question is d and e Please details thank you d. Assume that G increases by 200. By how much will Y increase in short-run equilibrium? What is the government-purchases multiplier (the change in Y divided by the change in G)? e. Assume that G is back at its original level of 1,000, but M (the money supply) increases by 200. By how much will Y increase in short-run equilibrium? What is the multiplier for money supply (the change in...
Suppose the Fed decides it needs to pursue an expansionary policy. Assume people hold no cash, the reserve requirement is 20 percent, and there are no excess reserves. How would the Fed increase the money supply by $1 million through open market operations? O A. Because the current money multiplier is 5, the Fed would sell $200000 worth of bonds, increasing the monetary base and so increasing the money supply by $1000000 B. Because the current money multiplier is 5,...
