Question 10 • * HSA 26-27 Economics

Which is an advantage of using modern currency instead of a barter system?

Answer
A
risk of a loss in value or counterfeiting
B
difficulty in determining the value of goods
C
ability to store and use a form that is accepted everywhere
D
a limited amount of goods and services available

Explanation

Modern currency makes exchanges easier because people can use money to buy many different goods and services without finding someone who wants exactly what they offer in barter. Its broad acceptance is the advantage described by “ability to store and use a form that is accepted everywhere.” The other choices describe risks or limitations, not advantages.
