Why is the money multiplier smaller than the simple deposit multiplier?
What will be an ideal response?
ANSWER
In the case of the money multiplier, individuals may hold some of their assets in cash rather than depositing them in a checking account and banks may hold excess reserves. The simple deposit multiplier assumes all assets are deposited into banks and banks do not hold excess reserves.
