Assume that the banking system has total reserves of $100 billion. Assume also that required reserves are 10 percent of checking deposits and that banks hold no excess reserves and households hold no currency. Calculate the money multiplier and money supply for this banking system.

The money multiplier and money supply for this banking system is 10 and $1,000 billion respectively

Explanation:

The computation of the money multiplier and the money supply is shown below:

As we know that

Money multiplier is

= 1 ÷ required reserve ratio

= 1 ÷ 0.10

= 10

So, the money supply is

= Total Reserves × Money Multiplier

= $100 billion × 10

= $1,000 billion

hence, the money multiplier and money supply for this banking system is 10 and $1,000 billion respectively
