MONEY

The US dollar is made up of 100 cents. The Department of the Treasury prints bills (=paper money) in various denominations: $1, $2, $5, $10, $20, $50 and $100. US bills are all the same size, all are green and so are sometimes called greenbacks. On the front each has a picture of a famous American. An informal name for dollars is bucks, because in the early period of US history people traded the skins of bucks (=deer) and prices would sometimes be given as a number of buckskins.

Britain’s currency is the pound sterling. A pound consists of one hundred pence. Pound coins are round and gold-coloured. They have the Queen’s head on one side and one of four designs, English, Scottish, Welsh or Northern Irish, on the other. Coins of lower value are silver-coloured.

A pound is informally called a quid. Scottish banknotes have their own designs. They can be used anywhere in Britain, though shops can legally refuse to accept them. To prevent people forging (=making their own) paper money, designs are complicated and difficult to copy. To check that a note is genuine, a shop assistant may hold it up to the light to see if it has a narrow silver thread running through it.

On 1 January 1999 the euro was introduced in the eleven countries of the European Union which supported monetary union. Britain chose not to be part of this group. However, many English businesses which trade with countries in Euroland have opened euro accounts so as to be able to pay for goods and be paid in euros.

Most adults in Britain have bank account. People use a current account for their general expenses. Current account holders are given a cheque book. It is possible to withdraw money from an account by cheque.

Many people receive their salaries by automated transfer direct from their employer’s account into their own. Some people also have a deposit account in which they put money they want to save and on which they receive interest.

People now pay less often in cash or even by cheque for goods. Most use credit cards or debit cards, informally called plastic, for anything that costs more than a few dollars or pounds. People can also give their card details over the telephone or the Internet.
