(a) If reserve requirements were set equal to 100 percent, there would be no moral hazard problem in the banking industry.
(b) If the reserve requirements on all deposits were set equal to 0, then the Federal Reserve would lose control of the money supply.
(c) If the government were to give up in the war on drugs, the money supply would likely increase.
(d) If limits on federal deposit insurance were decreased, then the money supply would likely increase.
(e) In fulfilling its role as the “lender of last resort” the Federal Reserve adds to the adverse selection problem in banking.
