Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 3.40 Money and Exchange skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
Which option best shows why money makes exchange easier than bartering with the toy robot?
APaying $15 matches the game's price, so the student can buy it without needing the store to want the toy robot.
BThe toy robot will always be worth exactly $15 to everyone.
CThe store will always accept any toy robot.
DThe game will become cheaper if the student barters.
Solution & Explanation:Money has a clear price match ($15). The store accepts money, but may not want the toy robot or agree on its value, which makes barter harder.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
Which option best compares the two systems for how quickly trades can happen?
ABarter is always faster because people like to talk.
BMoney is slower because counting takes too long.
CBoth are the same speed in every situation.
DUsing money is usually faster because posted prices and one common payment reduce bargaining and searching for trade matches.
Solution & Explanation:Money with posted prices reduces negotiating and the need to find a perfect match of wants. That usually makes trades quicker than barter.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
Which option best shows how money would make exchange easier?
AApples would pay the phone bill.
BMoving furniture would pay the phone bill.
CMoney lets the teacher accept payment that can be used to pay the phone bill, instead of goods or services the phone company won't take.
DMoney makes tutoring unnecessary.
Solution & Explanation:Bills like phone service are paid with money. Money is easier because it can be used directly for the bill, while apples or moving help cannot be given to the phone company.
