Explain?

Can someone explain me what this graph means exactly? On the X axis, there are letters and on the Y are amounts. So, depositor A sees no expansion of his deposit no matter what is the reserve ratio, but as you move up the alphabet (?!?), depositors see more and more expansion to their deposits? --Childhood's End (talk) 14:48, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's related to the Table in the main article. Money that is lent out is then deposited in another bank and some of it can be lent out again, and this process is repeated (which is what the letters represent). --Gebjon (talk) 17:02, 2 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
