Topic 8. Money and its functions
The main feature of money is its acceptance as the means of payment or medium of exchange. Nevertheless, money has other functions. It is a standard of value, a unit of account, a store of value and a standard of deferred payment.
The Medium of Exchange. Money, the medium of exchange, is used in one-half of almost all exchange. Money is the medium through which people exchange goods and services. However, this has not always been true. In primitive societies a system of barter was used. In barter economy there is no medium of exchange. Barter was a system of direct exchange of one good or service for another. Goods are traded directly or swapped for other goods. In a barter economy, the seller and the buyer each must want something the other has to offer. Each person is simultaneously a seller and a buyer. There is a double coincidence of wants. Barter was a very unsatisfactory system because people's precise needs seldom coincided.
A Measure of Value. Money can also serve as a standard of value. Society considers it convenient to use a monetary unit to determine relative costs of different goods and services. In this function money appears as the unit of account, is the unit in which prices are quoted and accounts are kept.
Store of Value .To be accepted in exchange, money has to be a store of value. Money is a store of value because it can be used to make purchases in the future. Houses, stamp collections, and interest-bearing bank accounts all serve as stores of value. Since money pays no interest and its real purchasing power is eroded by inflation, there are almost certainly better ways to store value.
Finally, money serves as a standard of deferred payment or a unit of account over time. It is the unit in which prices are quoted and accounts are kept. In Britain prices are quoted in pounds sterling, in USA in dollars. It is usually convenient to use the units in which the medium of exchange is measured as the unit of account as well.
