    Money Created = $50000

    Explanation:

    Money Multiplier is ratio of multiple times final deposits, created by initial deposits received by bank. It is determined by Legal Reserve Ratio to be kept by commercial banks, as per central banks commands.

    Final Deposits / Initial Deposits = 1/LRR

    Given LRR = 0.20, Money Multiplier = 1 / 0.20 = 5 here

    This means Final Deposits will be 5 times Initial Deposits. So given intital deposits = 10000, they will be 10000 x 5 i. e = $ 50000
