Case-based MCQs :
I. Read the extract given below and answer the questions that follow:
Bartering is the act of trading one good or service for another without using a medium of exchange such as money. A bartering economy differs from a monetary economy in a variety of ways. When barter was used as an exchange medium, the needs of people were very limited. This trading method doesn’t involve money and it relies solely on exchanging goods and services for other services and goods in return. The use of money spans a very large part of our everyday life. To understand the usefulness of money, we must consider what the world would be like without money. How would people exchange goods and services? Economies without money typically engage in the barter system. Barter is highly inefficient for trying to coordinate the trades in a modern advanced economy. In an economy without money, an exchange between two people would involve a double coincidence of wants, a situation in which both the parties have to agree to sell and buy each other’s commodities. This is known as double coincidence of wants. What a person desires to sell is exactly what the other wishes to buy. In a barter system where goods are directly exchanged without the use of money, double coincidence of wants is an essential feature. Another problem with the barter system is that it does not allow us to easily enter into future contracts for purchasing many goods and services. Money solves the problems that the barter system creates. Money serves as a medium of exchange, which means that money acts as an intermediary between the buyer and the seller. Modern forms of money include currency — paper notes and coins. The other form in which people hold money is as deposits with banks.
