You just deposited $$4,000$ in cash in a checking account at the local bank. Assume that banks lend out all excess reserves and that there are no leaks in the banking system. That is$,$ all money lent by banks gets deposited in the banking system. Round your answers to the nearest dollar.

If the reserve requirement is $18\%,$ how much will your deposit increase the total value of checkable bank deposits?

If the reserve requirement is $7\%,$ how much will your deposit increase the total value of checkable deposits?
