pe--preliminary estimate

Reserves and monetary base figures incorporate adjustments for discontinuities, or "breaks", associated with regulatory changes in reserve
requirements. I For more information, see Table 3. I
Seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted total reserves equal seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted required reserves plus unadjusted excess
reserves. I Also, see footnote 2 on Table 2 and footnote 2 on Table 3. I
Seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted nonborrowed reserves equal seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted total reserves less unadjusted total
borrowings of depository inst1tutions from the Federal Reserve.
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.
Excess reserves NSA equals unadjusted total reserves ITable 2, column 11 less unadjusted required reserves ITable 2, column 31.
The seasonal!¥ adjusted, break-adjusted monetary base consists of Ill seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted total reserves plus 12) the
seasonally adJusted currency component of the money stock plus 131, for all quarterly reporters on the "Report of Transaction Accounts, Other
Deposits and Vault Cash" and 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. IAlso see footnote 3 on Table 2
and footnote 4 on table 3. I

pe--preliminary estimate

Reflects actual required reserves. with no adjustments to eliminate the effects of discontinuities, or "breaks", associated with regulatory

changes in reserve requi.--,ts.

Reserve balances Mith Federal Reserve Banks plus vault cash used to satisfy reserve requirements.
The nonetary base, not break-adjusted and not seasonally adjusted, consists of Ill total reserves plus 12) required clearing balances and

adjustnents to co.pensate for float at Federal Reserve Banks f?lus ( 3) the currency component of the money stock plus ( 4 l, for all quarterly
naporters on the "Report of Transaction Accoo..r~ts, Other Depos1 ts and Vault Cash" and for all those weekly reporters whose vault cash exceeas
their required reserves, the difference between current vault cash and the amount applied to satisfy current reserve requirements. After the
introduction of CIIR., currency and vault cash figures are measured over computation periods ending on Mondays.
Excludes required clearing balances and adjustments to compensate for float and includes other off-balance sheet "as-of" adjustments.
Dates refer to the ~~aintenance periods in Nhich the vault cash can be used to satisfy reserve requirements. Under contemporaneous reserve
M!gl.lir-emslts, ..aintenance periods end 30 days after the lagged conp.~tation periods in which the vault cash is held.
All vault cash held during the lagged CCllllpUtation period by "bould" institutions I i.e., those whose required reserves exceed their vault
cash) plus the anotnt of vault caSI\ applied during the maintenance period by "nonbound" institutions I i.e., those whose vault cash exceeds
their req~.~ired reserves 1 to satisfy current reserve requirements.
Total vaUlt cash held by depository institutions minus the aiiiOU'It applied to satisfy reserve requirements.
Consists of carryover only at depoSitory institutions maintaining reserves on the basis of two-week maintenance periods. Reflects excess (+) or
deficit (-) reserves elig1ble to be carried forward into the two=week reserve maintenance period ending on the date shown.

pe--preliminary estimate

Figuras reflect adjus~ts for discontinuities, or "breaks", associated with regulatory changes in reserve
requ1..-,ts.
Br8ak-adjusted total reserves equal break-adjusted required reserves I Table 3, coll.lllrl 3 l plus excess reserves NSA
(Table 17 col....-a 5).
T~~ ~ired reserves for discontinuities due to r~latory cha~s in reserve requirements, a multiplicative
proc
is used to esti.ate what ~ired reserves would have been in past periods had current reserve requirements
bea'l in effect. Break-adjusted requi..ed reserves are equal to break-adjusted required reserves against transactions
~its.

1h8 braak-ad~ted .anetary base egl.lals ( 1) break-adjusted total reserves plus I 2) the (unadjusted) currency component
of the~ stock plus (3), for all quarterly reporters on the "Report of Transaction Accounts, Other Deposits and
vault CaSh" and for all those weekly reporters WhOse vault cash excBeds their required reserves, the break-adjusted
difference be"-' current vault cash and the amount applied to satisfy current reserve requirements.
