Suppose First Main Street Bank, Second Republic Bank, and Third Fidelity Bank all have zero excess reserves. The required reserve ratio is 25%. The Federal Reserve buys a government bond worth $1,800,000 from Felix, a customer of First Main Street Bank. He deposits the money into his checking account at First Main Street Bank. Complete the following table to reflect any changes in First Main Street Bank's balance sheet (before the bank makes any new loans). Assets Liabilities                     Complete the following table to show the effects of the new deposit on excess and required reserves, assuming a required reserve ratio of 25%. Hint: If the change is negative, be sure to enter the value as a negative number. Amount Deposited   Change in Excess Reserves   Change in Required Reserves (Dollars)   (Dollars)   (Dollars) 1,800,000     Now, suppose First Main Street Bank loans out all of its new excess reserves to Deborah, who immediately writes a check for the full amount to Carlos. Carlos then immediately deposits the funds in his checking account at Second Republic Bank. Then Second Republic Bank lends out all of its new excess reserves to Larry, who writes a check to Janet, who deposits the money in her account at Third Fidelity Bank. Finally, Third Fidelity lends out all of its new excess reserves to Megan. Fill in the following table to show the effect of this ongoing chain of events at each bank. Enter each answer to the nearest dollar.   Increase in Checkable Deposits   Increase in Required Reserves   Increase in Loans (Dollars)   (Dollars)   (Dollars) First Main Street Bank 1,800,000    Second Republic Bank      Third Fidelity Bank      Assume this process continues, with each successive loan deposited into a checking account and no banks keeping any excess reserves. Under these assumptions, the $1,800,000 injection into the money supply results in an overall increase of    in checkable deposits.
