The task I am struggling with: Tracy Williams deposits $500 that was in her sock drawer into a checking account at the local bank. The reserve ratio is 10%. a) how dies the deposit initially change the T-account of the local bank? How does it change the money supply? b) If the bank maintains a reserve ratio of 10%, how will it respond to the new deposit? c) if every time the bank makes a loan, the loan results in a new checkable bank deposit in a different bank equal to the amount of the loan, by how much could the total money supply in the economy expand in response to Tracy´s initial cash deposit of $500? Thank you very much for your help.
