As of today the first econ bank of austin currently


As of today, the First ECON Bank of Austin currently holds:

$200M in transaction deposits

$20M in Bank’s capital

$20M in Investment Securities

$160M in Loans

In addition to that, First ECON Bank also holds $40M in Total Bank Reserves.

The bank manager just noticed that one of the UT Austin students just withdrew $20M out of the checkable (transaction) deposits.

If we assume that that entire amount of the transaction deposits is a subject to the legal 10% reserve requirement, please indicate the required course of the bank’s action to manage its liquidity and meet its legal Reserves requirement:

Briefly explain how (if at all) would you answer change if the UTA students withdrew $40M?
