Question 6 of 10

Let [tex]$r = 0.07$[/tex] be the reserve rate. Which of the following is the money multiplier?



Answer :

To determine the money multiplier given a reserve rate [tex]\( r = 0.07 \)[/tex], we use the money multiplier formula:

[tex]\[ \text{Money Multiplier} = \frac{1}{\text{Reserve Ratio}} \][/tex]

In this case, the reserve ratio is [tex]\( 0.07 \)[/tex]. Plugging this value into the formula, we get:

[tex]\[ \text{Money Multiplier} = \frac{1}{0.07} \][/tex]

Calculating this,

[tex]\[ \frac{1}{0.07} \approx 14.285714285714285 \][/tex]

Therefore, the money multiplier, given a reserve rate of 0.07, is approximately 14.285714285714285.
