SCENARIO: Johnny Fatcat withdraws $15,000 from his checking account at The DL Bank. He pays $10,000 to Sammy Loanshark, who puts the money in his checking account at The Sopranos Bank. Johnny uses the other $5,000 as paper for his hand-rolled cigarettes, all of which he smokes ("nothing smokes better than a $100 bill," he loves to tell his friends).

C.Ultimately, what will be the total amount of new loans in the economy after Sammys payment? Show your work.
