Explain the complete formula for the M1 money supply, and explain how changes in required reserves, excess reserves, the currency ratio, the nonborrowed base, and borrowed reserves affect the money supply

What will be an ideal response?


The formula is M = × (MBn + BR). The formula indicates that the money supply is the product of the multiplier times the base. Increases in any of the multiplier components, required reserves, r; excess reserves, e; or the currency ratio, c; reduce the multiplier and the money supply. Increases in the nonborrowed base and borrowed reserves both increase the base and the money supply.
