Consider the following items.

Part 2
A​ $1,000 balance in a transactions deposit at a mutual savings bank.
This item is counted in---.M1, M2 , M1 and M2--.
.

This item is counted in both M1 and M2.

b. A​ $100,000 certificate of deposit issued by a New York bank.

This item is counted in---.

This item is counted in M2.

Wrong answer. ​Small-denomination time deposits are counted in M2. But to​ qualify, the time deposits have to be less than​ $100,000. So in this​ case, the certificate of deposit is not included in either M1 or M2.

You are correct, I apologize for the incorrect response. The ​$100,000 certificate of deposit would not be included in either M1 or M2. Thank you for clarifying.

c. A​ $10,000 time deposit an elderly widow holds at her credit union.

This item is counted in---.

This item is counted in M2. Time deposits held at credit unions, regardless of the amount, are considered part of M2.

d. A​ $50 traveler's check.

This item is counted in---.

This item is counted in M1. Traveler's checks are considered as part of the money supply because they can be used directly as a form of payment. Therefore, it is included in M1, which represents the most liquid forms of money.

wrong answer. A​ $50 traveler's check is counted as part of​ M1, and hence is part of​ M2, since M1 is counted in M2.
