Seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted nonborrowed reserves equal seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted total reserves less unadjusted total borrowi~s of depository inst1tutions from the Federal Reserve. 4. Extended credit consists of borrowing at the discount window under the terms and conditions established for the extended credit program to help depository institutions deal with sustained liquidity pressures. Because there is not the same need to repay such borrowing promptly as there is with traditional short-term adjustment credit, the money market impact of extended credit is similar to that of nonborrowed reserves. 5. Excess reserves NSA equals unadjusted total reserves ITable 2, column 1) less unadjusted required reserves (Table 2, column 3J. 6. The seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted monetary base consists of 11) seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted total reserves plus 12) the seasonally adJusted currenc~ component of the money stock plus 13), for all quarterly reporters on the "Report of Transaction Accounts, Other Deposits and Vault Cash" an~ for all those weekly reporters whose vault cash exceeds their required reserves, the seasonally adjusted, breakadjusted difference between current vault cash and the amount applied to satisfy current reserve requirements.

Dates refer to the maintenance periods in Which the vault cash can be used to satisfy reserve requirements. Under ·contemporaneous reserve r~irements, maintenance ~riods end 30 days after the lagge~ c~tation ~riods in which the vault cash is held. All vault cash held during the lagged c~tation ~riod by "bould" institutions I i.e. • those whose reguired reserves exceed their vault cash) plus the amount of vault cash applied during the maintenance period by "nonbound" institutions I i.e., those whose vault cash exceeds their r~ired reserves) to satisfy current reserve req~,~irements. Total vault cash held by ~sitory institutions minus the amount applied to satisfy reserve requirements. Consists of carryover only at depository institutions maintaining reserves on the basis of two-weak maintenance periods.
