. .
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..pr.omptly
as there is with traditional short-term adjustment credit, the money market impact of extended credit is similar to that of nonborrowed
reserves.

pe--preliminary estimate

Figures reflect adjustments for discontinuities, or "breaks", associated with regulatory changes in reserve
requirements.
Break-adjusted total reserves equal break-adjusted required reserves CTable 3, column 31 plus excess reserves NSA ·
CTable 1, column 51.
To adjust required reserves for discontinuities due to r~latory changes in reserve requirements, a multiplicative
proceeure is used to estimate what r~ired reserves would have been in past periods had current reserve
requirements been in effect. Break-adJUSted re~ired reserves includes required reserves against transactions
deposits and nonpersonal time and sav1ngs deposits I but not reservable nondeposit liabilit1es. J
The break-adjusted monetary base eguals Ill break-adjusted total reserves plus 121 the lunadjustedl currency component
of the money stock plus (3J, 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 breaK-adjusted
difference between current vault cash and the amount applied to satisfy current reserve requirements.
