Include correctly labeled diagrams, if useful or required, in explaining your answers. A correctly labeled diagram must have all axes and curves clearly labeled and must show directional changes. If the question prompts you to "Calculate," you must show how you arrived at your final answer.

(c) What is the dollar value of the maximum amount of new loans MSM Bank can initially make as a result of Elaine's deposit? Explain. (d) Based on the central bank's open-market purchase of bonds, calculate the maximum amount by which the money supply can change throughout the banking system. Show your work. (e) How will the change in the money supply in part (d) affect aggregate demand and the price level in the short run? Explain.

Let M subscript t denote the initial money supply. A friend of yours does not trust banks and keeps all his money in cash. He buys an old car for $20,000. The seller deposits the money in her checking account in Citibank. The bank keeps 10% of the deposit in reserve and lends the rest to Jack. Jack keeps $1,000 in cash and spends the remainder on NVIDIA stock. The seller of the stock, Jane, transfers the whole amount to her checking account in Wells Fargo. Wells Fargo keeps 20% of the amount in reserve and lends to rest to Joshua. Joshua keeps $1,600 in cash and spends the rest on treasury securities. The seller of the securities happens to be the Fed. A fire in Joshua's uninsured house destroys $600 of his cash. Let M subscript t plus 1 end subscript denote the resulting money supply. Calculate the change in the money supply, M subscript t plus 1 end subscript minus M subscript t.
Suppose the bank decides to invest 45 percent of its excess reserves in short-term securities in order to earn interest. The bank issues a cashier's check to a securities dealer to purchase the securities. The securities dealer deposits the check into an account at a different bank. What will ACME Bank's balance sheet look like after the check has been processed? Fill in the values in the table below. Assume a required reserve ratio of 10 percent. The balance sheet for ACME Bank is shown below.

Suppose bank A, which faces a reserve requirement of 10 percent, receives a $1000 cash deposit from a customer. Assuming that it wishes to hold no excess reserves, determine how much the bank should lend. Show your answer on Bank A’s balance sheet. Assuming that the loan shown in Bank A’s balance sheet is redeposited in Bank B, show the changes in Bank’s balance sheet if it lends out the maximum possible. Repeat this process for three additional banks: C, D and E. Using the simple money multiplier, calculate the total change in the money supply resulting from the $1000 initial deposit. Assume that Banks A, B, C, D and E each wish to hold 5 percent excess reserves. How would holding this level of excess reserves affect the total change in the money supply?
In a scenario where market interest rates suddenly increase by 2%, for which bank will gap analysis give a misleading answer about what will really happen, compared with a careful simulation analysis?

Suppose an individual deposits $1,500 into her chequing account, which eventually leads banks to increase cash reserves of $1,500 and initiates $36,000 in additional loans. The target reserve ratio is [blank1]%. Specify your answer in percentage terms, rounded to 1 decimal place.

In the past, the Federal Reserve (Fed) mandated that member commercial banks must hold a certain fraction of their checkable deposits in the form of bank deposits at the Fed and/or vault cash because the sum of these two accounts equals reserves. The fraction of checkable deposits that banks must hold in reserve form is called the required reserve ratio (r). Suppose no excess reserves were in the banking system and the required reserve ratio(r) was 20%. The Fedbought a government bond worth $750,000 from Raphael, a client of First Main Street Bank. Raphael deposited the money into his checking account at First Main Street Bank. Given the required reserve ratio (r), First Main Street Bank was required to hold $_______ as required reserves and could $_______ to make loans.
The Required Reserve Ratio is 25% for all banks. Assuming that all the customers that have outstanding loans have used all of those additional funds to invest in new machinery for their businesses (therefore, the amount of Checkable Deposits is the true liability the bank has to its customers), then $_____________ is the resulting change to the loan creating potential of the whole system (these three banks) as a result of Second National Bank customers depositing an additional $400,000 in their Checkable Deposit accounts. (Do NOT enter the '$' in your response. Enter a whole dollar amount; do NOT enter cents.) in new loans.
As a result of this flight to liquidity, the interest rate in the 20-year Treasury bonds market ________________ ( decreases/ remains the same/ increases) , while the interest rate in the T-bill market ________________ ( decreases/ remains the same/ increases) .
