SCENARIO 4. Notation: C = currency; D = demand deposits; T = time deposits; & S = saving deposits. Suppose M1 = C + D; M2 = C + D + T; M3 = C + D + T + S. Suppose also that C = .05D; T = .4D; & S = .3D. The Fed imposes the following reserve requirements: rd = .2; rt = .3; rs = .15. Banks keep the following excess reserve ratios: ed = .05; et = .06; & es = .07.Suppose D = $800.Hint: Find the money multiplier to answer the following questions. Also note that MS = m.MB

23) Refer to Scenario 4. For the money supply M1, the monetary base MB1 = $______.

24) Refer to Scenario 4. For the money supply M2, the monetary base MB2 = $______.

25) Refer to Scenario 4. For the money supply M3, the monetary base MB3 = $______.
