Question 2 • * HSA 26-27 Economics

Which could be a negative factor of a barter system?

Answer
A
Both individuals easily agree on the value of their goods.
B
One person may not want or need what the other person is offering.
C
Goods can be exchanged without the need for any physical currency.
D
The process requires money so the two people involved can easily come to an agreement.

Explanation

Barter involves exchanging goods or services directly, without money. A trade can be difficult if one person does not want or need what the other person is offering, so B describes a negative factor. The lack of a need for physical currency in C is generally an advantage, not a drawback.
