    Given that

    Primary deposit = $1,000,000

    Reserves = 20%

    So, the simple balance sheet is presented below:

    Bank displayed in asset is increased by$1,000,000

    And reserves increased by

    = $1,000,000 * 20%

    = $200,000

    The maximum amount of check-able deposits after deposit expansion would be

    = Primary deposit * required reserves ratio

    = $1,000,000 * 11%

    = $110,000

    So, the money multiplier is

    = 1 : required reserve ratio

    = 1 : 11%

    = 9.09
