Banks can lend up to 90% of money on deposit in the bank to other clients.
The other 10% that the bank does not lend is called the "fractional reserve".

Now, by lending this 90% to a client, the money supply may increase based on the procedure below:
First client deposits 100$ in the bank
Bank lends 90$ to second client who deposits these 90$ in another bank
This other bank lends 81$ from the deposited 90$ to a third client who deposits them in a new bank.
The new bank lends 72.9$ out of these 81$ to a fourth clients who deposits them in a different bank......and so the cycle continues increasing the money supply

If Keynes’ law applies during economic contractions and Say’s law applies during economic expansion, how will the three goals of

Lelu [443]

Answer:

Answer is option a, i.e. trade-offs and connections may differ in short run and the long run.

Explanation:

Keynes' law in economics and Say's law in economics are contradictory in their perspective. Where Keynes' law says that it is the demand that creates the supply, on the other hand, Say's law states that its the supply that tends to create the demand. But, we cannot neglect any of the above facts as demand and supply cant operate independently. So, on combining the two laws, we happen to take both the given laws into account. Also, it is found that Keynes' law is more appropriate and accurate for the short-run whereas, Say's law is for the long run. This thus creates trade-offs and connections that differ in the short-run and long-run by affecting the three important goals of macroeconomics, i.e. higher standard of living, low inflation, and low unemployment.
