Consider the following example of bartering: 1 10-ounce T-bone steak can be traded for 5 soft drinks. 1 soft drink can be traded for 10 apples. 100 apples can be traded for a T-shirt. 5 T-shirts can be exchanged for 1 textbook. It takes 4 textbooks to get 1 VCR. How many 10-ounce T-bone steaks could you exchange for 1 textbook? How many soft drinks? How many apples? State the price of T-shirts in terms of apples, textbooks, and soft drinks. Why do you think we use money as a unit of account?
