Respuesta :

Answer:

A) Does not change the money supply.

Explanation:

Demand deposits change the monetary base, because the monetary base equals currency plus demand deposits.

However, in itself, a demand deposit does not change the money supply. For the change in the money supply to occur, the bank must loan out some of the money in the deposit.
