When the Federal Reserve raises the discount rate, it:  

makes it more attractive for banks to borrow money from the Federal Reserve and loan more money to their customers. This expands the money supply.

makes it less attractive for banks to borrow money from the Federal Reserve and loan more money to their customers. This expands the money supply.

makes it less attractive for banks to borrow money from the Federal Reserve and loan more money to their customers. This reduces the money supply.

makes it more attractive for banks to borrow money from the Federal Reserve and loan more money to their customers. This reduces the money supply.

If the Federal Reserve system injects $1 million of newly printed money into the economy (for example, by loaning $1 million to a commercial bank, which plans to loan this amount to its customers), then:

The nation's total money supply does not change, because the money is simply a transfer of funds from one bank (The Fed) to another bank (the commercial bank).

The nation's total money supply increases by a multiple of 1 million, if banks loan out as much as they are allowed to loan out and bank customers deposit all their funds.

The nation's total money supply increases by $1 million, if all the money is loaned out by the commercial bank.

The nation's money supply increases by 90% of $1 million, if the reserve requirement is 10%.
