Answer:

Assuming the bank loans out all of its remaining excess reserves as a checkable deposit and has a check cleared against it for that amount, its reserves and checkable deposits will now be: $5000

Explanation:

Checkable deposit = 110,000  

Required reserve = 20% of 110,000

                              = 22,000

Reserves = $27,000

Excess reserve = 27,000 - 22,000

                          = $5000

So, this bank can safely expand its loans by a maximum of $5000 ( i.e, excess reserve)
