QUESTION 8 Let the total amount of currency in the economy be $1,298.4 billion, the total amount of commercial banks' reserves at the Fed be $2,621.2 billion, and the total amount of deposits be $10,647.9 billion. Then money multiplier in this economy is Note: Type in your answer rounded to two decimal places, i.e., your answer must be of the form "999.99". I will not be able to fix correct answers that were entered incorrectly, such as "999.999" or "999,99" or "999". In case the last digit in the correct answer is zero, e.g., "999.90" or "999.00", Blackboard may automatically delete it and you should not do anything about it. In case of percentages, do not type in the percentage symbol "%". If your answer is a negative number, type a dash in front of your answer, i.e, "-999.99".

a) Define M1 and M2 using the definition of money supply in Hong Kong. b) Suppose you buy $300,000 ibonds from the Hong Kong government, in which $200,000 are financed by your cash, and $100,000 are paid by writing a cheque. Explain the impact on M1 and M2 using the definition of money supply in Hong Kong. c) Explain in terms of the three functions of money, how cigarettes could be called "money" in prisoner-of-war camps of World War II.
Suppose Robina Bank receives a deposit of $51,589 and the reserve requirement is 3%. Answer the questions using this information. Round your answers to two decimal places. What is the amount that Robina Bank must keep on hand as required by the Federal Reserve (Fed)? keep on hand: $ What is the amount that Robina Bank must have in excess reserves from this initial deposit? excess reserves: $ What is the total change in the M1 money supply from this one deposit? total change: $
The banking system currently has $10 billion of reserves, none of which are excess. People hold only deposits and no currency, and the reserve requirement is 10 percent. If the Fed raises the reserve requirement to 12.5 percent and at the same time buys $1 billion worth of bonds, then by how much does the money supply change? a) It falls by $12 billion. b) It falls by $19 billion. c) It falls by $21 billion. d) It rises by $19 billion.
Most people in the country of Classica tend to keep $3 out of every $100 of their cash holdings in their wallets. The central bank has instructed the commercial banks to also hold 4% of all bank deposits as reserves. Suppose that in 2018 customers deposit $4,000 into their bank accounts. Based on the extended money multiplier calculated in part (i), what is the calculation of the total amount which the money supply in the banking system will eventually increase to?

Recalculate the money multiplier from the previous question a for five iterations. Identify the total money created, the total required reserves, and the total excess reserves. Show your work
Question 2 on Topic 5 Most people in the country of Classica tend to keep $3 out of every $100 of their cash holdings in their wallets. The central bank has instructed the commercial banks to also hold 4% of all bank deposits as reserves. Calculate the extended money multiplier Suppose that in 2018 customers deposit $4,000 into their bank accounts. Based on the extended money multiplier calculated in part (i), calculate the total amount which the money supply in the banking system will eventually increase to. Show all steps involved in the calculation. In which situation can the simple money multiplier value equal that of the extended money multiplier value? Justify your answer with a numerical example.
3. Suppose the total reserves (RR+ER) in the banking sector is $5 trillion. The central bank has set the required reserve ratio (rr) at 5%. Assuming that the banks prefer to hold zero excess reserves (ER), answer the following questions. a. Calculate the money multiplier. b. What is the total money supply at the end of the deposit expansion process? c. Calculate what would happen to the money supply if the central bank causes the total reserves to increase by $1 trillion.
A) Explain whether each of the following events increases or decreases the money supply. 1) The State Bank of Pakistan sells bonds in open-market operations. 2) The State Bank of Pakistan increases the reserve requirement. 3) The State Bank of Pakistan reduces the interest rate it pays on reserves. 4) MCB Bank repays a loan it had previously taken from the State Bank of Pakistan. 5) After a rash of pickpocketing, people decide to hold less currency. 6) Fearful of bank runs, bankers decide to hold more excess reserves.
