Answer:

[tex]increase\ in\ money\ supply=\frac{1}{0.09}\times 689645=$7662722.22[/tex]

Explanation:

We have given required reserve ratio = 9 %

Excess reserve = $ 689645

We have to calculate increase in money supply

Increase in money supply is given by

[tex]increase\ in\ money\ supply=\frac{1}{required\ reserve\ ratio}\times excess\ reserve[/tex]

So [tex]increase\ in\ money\ supply=\frac{1}{0.09}\times 689645=$7662722.22[/tex]
