26. Deriving The Money Multiplier MB=CU+BR which the Fed controls We know that M=CU + D Substitute in CU=kD and we get M=kD+D or M= (k+1)D We also know that BR=r*D and that MB=CU+BR Substitute in and MB=kD+rD or MB=(k+r)D To find the link divide M by MB: (k+1)D/(k+r)D The Money Multiplier = (k+1)/(k+r) The multiple by which the money supply changes due to a change in the monetary base.
