If the required reserve ratio is 20 percent and commercial bankers decide to hold additional excess reserves equal to 5 percent of any newly acquired checkable deposits, then the effective monetary multiplier for the banking system will be: a) 3 b) 4 c) 5 d) 6

Respuesta :

Answer:

b) 4

Explanation:

effective monetary multiplier = [required reserve ratio]/[commercial bankers decide to hold additional excess reserves]

                                                = 20/5

                                                = 4

Therefore, the effective monetary multiplier for the banking system will be 4.
