Suppose there is an upswing in the economy with a large demand for finance
to invest by the residential and non-residential building sector such that
lending by all banks increases by $250 billion. On the assumption the reserve
(or liquidity) ratio of banks is 12% this expansion in economic activity will
result in an endogenous increase of
O $20 billion of reserves and $230 billion of bank deposit money
O $34.1 billion of reserves and $284.1 billion of bank deposit money
O $20 billion of reserves and $270 billion of bank deposit money
O $26.2 billion of reserves and $276.2 billion of bank deposit money
