Question

Bank A has an increase in deposits of $20 million dollars and all bank reserve requirements are 10%. Bank A loans out the full amount of the deposit increase that is allowed. This amount winds up deposited in Bank B. Bank B finds out the full amount possible as well and this amount winds up deposited in Bank C. What is the total increase in deposits resulting from these three banks

Answer 1

Answer:

Total increase in deposit  = $54,200,000

Explanation:

given data

deposits = $20 million dollars

bank reserve = 10%

solution

we know that Deposit in bank A  is = $20,000,000

and  Reserve @ 10%   = $2,000,000

so

Bank A loans or bank B deposit  will be = $20,000,000  - $2,000,000

Bank A loans or bank B deposit  = $18,000,000

here  Reserve @ 10%  = $1,800,000

so

Bank B loans or Bank C deposit  will be here = $18,000,000  - $1,800,000

Bank B loans or Bank C deposit = $16,200,000

so that

Total increase in deposit will be = Bank A + Bank B + Bank C     ...............1

put here value we get

Total increase in deposit  = $20,000,000 + $18,000,000 + $16,200,000

Total increase in deposit  = $54,200,000
