Assumptions include: all liabilities are checkable deposits, depository institutions do not keep excess reserves; people desire to hold only additional checkable deposits and do not want to hold additional currency, and all assets are either reserves or loans.
When the proceeds of the loan are spent, these funds end up as deposits possibly in a different depository institution(remember that we are assuming that none of the proceeds of the loan end up as currency).
During bank panics, people want to shift from checkable deposits to currency by withdrawing currency from banks--thus bank panics lead to a substantial increase in C/D. When engaged in illegal activity, most people do not conduct transactions using checks; instead they are more likely to conduct illegal activities using currency.

But, as the buyers of the securities pay for them with funds in their deposit accounts in the same or other banks, the net result is a $9,000 decline in securities and deposits at all banks.
Bank deposits decline $100 because the customer pays for the currency with a check on his or her transaction deposit; and the bank's currency (vault cash reserves) is also reduced $100.

Because the central bank allows banks to hold only a fraction of the funds in their checkable deposits as cash, money newly created by the central bank can be lent and deposited over and over.
During the boom, banks' balance sheets swell with loans on the asset side, balanced by checkable deposits on the liability side.
The swollen liabilities of checkable deposits are payable on demand to customers while the matching assets of loans are not recoverable on demand by banks.

 Economics 330
When the currency to checkable deposit ratio increases this implies that depositors are converting some of their checkable deposits into currency and this implies that less multiple expansion occurs
An increase in the excess reserve to checkable deposit ratio means that the banking system is effectively using more of its reserves to support a given level of checkable deposits.
This underlines the importance of the currency to checkable deposit ratio and the excess reserve to checkable deposit ratio during bank panics

 Demand account - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A demand account (North America: checking account or chequing account, UK and Commonwealth: current account) is a deposit account held at a bank or other financial institution, for the purpose of securely and quickly providing frequent access to funds on demand, through a variety of different channels.
An account holder may either apply for a permanent one, or the financial institution may, at its sole discretion, provide a temporary overdraft on an ad-hoc basis.
Unlike savings accounts where the primary reason for depositing money is to generate interest, the main function of a demand account is transactional therefore most providers either pay no interest or pay a low level of interest on credit balances.

Checkable deposits and currency are roughly equal parts of what the Fed calls "M1".
In our present fractional-reserve, credit-money system, checkable deposit money is created by banks ("out of thin air"), by an ingenious accounting sleight-of-hand, in the process of making loans.

 The Money Supply Process
What usually happens when a loan is made is that the borrower issues a claim against him-/herself in the form of a promissory note; in exchange the bank issues a claim against itself in the form of an addition to the borrower's checkable deposit account.
The consequence is that when checks written by borrowers against the increments to their deposit accounts clear the system, the bank finds itself in a deficiency reserve position.
But it is constrained either by law (a legal reserve requirement) or by prudence (the need to maintain the confidence of the public in the bank's ability to meet withdrawal requests upon demand) to issuing loans which are no greater in total than the excess of its required or desired reserves, whichever is greater.
