What happens to reserves and monetary base if the Fed buy bonds from a bank?
If the Federal reserve wants to create dollars it buys bonds from the public in the nations bond market. After the purchase the money spent is in the fists of the public. So basically the purchase of bonds by the Fed creates money, thus increasing the money supply. If the Fed sells government bonds the money then is out of the hands of the public thus decreasing the money supply. Reserves are unaffected because managing the minimum reserve for banks is a different tool that the Federal Reserve and the Federal Open Market Committee use to help manipulate the money supply and the value of that supply of money. It is called fractional reserve banking. For more information I would recommend checking out the FOMC website, Central Bank website, and Federal reserve website.

What are three limitations on the money expansion process?
1. Borrowers do something with the money they borrow 2. People do not withdraw cash. 3. Banks do not let reserves sit idle To the extent that people prefer to hold cash, the actual money multiplier will be smaller than the simple money multiplier because cash withdrawals reduce reserves in the banking system. Reduced reserves give banks less ability to make loans or buy bonds.
