Reserves and monetary base figures incorporate adjustments for discontinuities, or "breaks", associated with regulatory changes in reserve requirements. (For more information, see Table 3.)
Seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted total reserves equal seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted required reserves plus unadjusted excess reserves. (Also, see footnote 2 on Table 2 and footnote~ on Table 3.)
Seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted nonborrowed reserves equal seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted total reserves less unadjusted total borrowings of depository institutions from the Federal Reserve.
Extended credit consists of borrowing at the discount window under the terms and conditions established for the extended cred1t program to help depository institutions deal with sustained liguidity
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 (Table 2, column 1) less unadjusted required reserves (Table 2, column
The seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted monetary base consists of (1) seasonally adjusted, break-adjusted total reserves plus (2 the seasonally adjusted currency component of the money 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 exceeds their required reserves, the seasonally
adjusted, break-adjusted difference between current vault cash and the amount applied to satisfy current reserve requirements. (Also see footnote 3 on Table 2 and footnote 4 on table 3.)

Reflects actual required reserves, with no adjustments to eliminate the eff~ts of discontinui~es, or "breaks", associated with regulatory changes in reserve requirements.
Reserve balances with Federal Reserve Banks plus vault cash used to sat1sfy reserve requirements.
The monetary base not break-adjusted and not seasonally adjusted, consists of (1) total reserves plus (21 required clearing balances and adjustments to compensate for float at Federal Reserve Banks
plus (3) the currency component of the money stock plus (4), 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 difference between current vault cash and the amount applied to satisfy current reserve requirements. After the introduction of CAR, currency and vault
cash figures are measured over computation periods ending on Mondays.
.
.
Excludes required clearing balanc~s an~ adj~stments to compensate for float and. includes other o~-balance she~t ·as~of" adjusl!nents.
Dates refer to the maintenance penods 1n wh1ch the vault cash can be used to satisfv reserve requirements. Starting With the maintenance penod ended November 25, 1992, each mamtenance period for
weekly reporters ends.16 days after the laggec! comp!Jtation period i~ w~ic~ the yauft cash is held. Preyiously, each maintenanc.e period ended 30 days after the lagged compu~tion P.eriod.
All vault cash held dun.ng !he.lagg~ compulation penod by "bound" lnstituti~ns (I.~ .. those whose req~1red reserves exceed th~1r vault cash) plus the amount of vault cash applied dunng the maintenance
period by "nonbound" 1nst1tutions (I.e., those whose vault cash exceeds their reqwred reserves) to satisfy current reserve requirements.
Total vault cash held by depository institutions minus the amount 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 eligible to be carried forward into the
two-week reserve maintenance period ending on the date shown.

Figures reflect adjustments for discontinuities or "breaks", associated with regulatory changes in reserve requirements.
Break-adjusted total reserves equal break-adjusted required reserves (Table 3, column 3) plus excess reserves NSA (Table 1, column 5).
To adJust required reserves for discontinuities due to regulatory changes in reserve requirements, a multiplicative procedure is used to estimate what required reserves would have been in past periods
had current reserve requirements been in effect. Break-adjusted reqwred reserves are equal to break-adJusted required reserves against transactions deposits.
fhe brea.k-ad!usted monetary base ~uals (1l break-adjusted total reserves plus (2) the (unadjusted) currency component of the money stock plus (3), for all quarterly reporters on the "Report of
ari~~action ccoun~ect' Other ,Deposrts and Vault Cash and for all those weekly reporters whose vault cash exceeds their required reserves, the break-adjusted difference between current vault cash
e amount app r to satisfy current reserve requirements.
