Hello:

I got this answer wrong. the correct answer is a: 200 Millions dias. Can you help me? can you explain it? Thanks

Scenario 29-1.

The monetary policy of Namdian is determined by the Namdian Central Bank. The local currency is the dia. Namdian banks collectively hold 100 million dias of required reserves, 25 million dias of excess reserves, 250 million dias of Namdian Treasury Bonds, and theircustomers hold 1,000 million dias of deposits. Namdians prefer to use only demand deposits and so the money supply consists of demand deposits.
