Respuesta :

Answer: Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Check-able deposits = $100,000

Actual reserves = $15,000

(a) Reserve ratio = 20%

Required reserve = 20% of 100,000

                             = $20,000

Money creating potential = Actual reserves - Required reserve

                                          = $15,000 - $20,000

                                          = -$ 5,000

(b) Reserve ratio = 14%

     Required reserve = 14% of 100,000

                                   = $14,000

Money creating potential = Actual reserves - Required reserve

                                          = $15,000 - $14,000

                                          = $1,000
