a) Suppose that Tk.10,000 in new taka bills (never seen before) falls magically from the sky into your hands. What are the minimum increase and the maximum increase in the money supply that may result? Assume the required reserve ratio is 10 percent.b) Suppose you receive Tk. 10,000 from your grandmother and deposits the money in a saving account. your grandmother gave you the money by writing a check on her saving account. Would the maximum increase in the money supply still be what you found it to be in part a) where you received the money from the sky? Why or why not?c) Suppose that instead you getting Tk. 10,000 from the sky or a check through your grandmother, you get the money from your mother who had buried it in a can in her backyard. In this case, would the maximum increase in the money supply be what you found it to be in part a)? Why or why not?

- 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. 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. 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…arrow_forwardsuppose that you deposit 8000 in your bank and the required reserve ration is 15 percent the maximum loan your bank can make as a direct result of your deposit isarrow_forwardYou just deposited $4,000 in cash into a checking account at the local bank. Assume that banks lend out all excess reserves and there are no leaks in the banking system. That is, all money lent by banks gets deposited in the banking system.
