5(b).Assume that over the course of the year, the bank receives $25 Billion in new deposits, makes $10 Billion in new loans to businesses and consumers, and $25 Billion in loans default.If there are no changes in any of the other balance sheet categories, show Securitas Bank's balance sheet at year's end. Be sure to include any changes in reserves, assuming that any new reserves are held as deposits with the Central Bank, so vault cash stays constant at $8 Billion.
