suppose the reguired reserve ratio for banks is 20%.
Asset Liabilities

Loans $500

Also some questions about the concept..
when the question said sth about 'the bank decide no to hold excess rederve..' and the questions asked will then be 'the max. possible change in DEPOSITS'
is that the excess reserve*1/rm =max possible cahnge in deposit?
some questions stated that the bank has reserve shortage,and asked for the max. possible change in bank loan.
Is that the reserve shortage*1/rm=max. possible change in bank loan?
