Answer #1

Answer a: Required reserve= Total Deposits* Reserve ratio

Required reserve= $1,00,000*(0.05)= $5000

Excess reserve= Available reserve - Required reserve

Excess reserve= $9000-$5000= $4000

b : Maximum amount this bank has been lent out = $99000

c : Now new deposits of the bank = $104000

Required reserve= 1,04,000*(5/100)= $5200

Excess reserve = $9000-$5200= $3800

Maximum amount this bank has been lent out = $98800

d: If required reserve ratio= 8%

Required reserve = 1,00,000*(0.08)=$8000

Excess reserve= $9000-$8000= $1000

Maximum amount the bank should lent out = $96000

Now new deposits in the bank = $1,04,000

Required reserve=$1,04,000*( 0.08)= $8320

Excess reserve=$9000- $8320= $680

Maximum loan that has been lent out = $95680

E : New deposits = $101000

Required reserve= $101000 *(5/100)= $5050

Therefore, reserve has been increased by $50 and loan amount has been increased by $950
