Barter, Credit, and Welfare: A theoretical inquiry into the barter phenomenon in Russia
No full textThis paper develops a model to investigate the welfare implications of barter in Russia and other transition economies during the 1990s. We argue that barter is a welfare-improving phenomenon that acts as a defense mechanism against monetary instability. When firms react to tighter credit markets by switching to barter, the risk they face diminishes, allowing for a higher level of production.Barter, welfare, Russia, money, credit, payment system, interest rate
U.S. Domestic Barter : an Empirical Investigation
No full textThis paper studies the barter industry developed in North America during he 1950s, pointing ut some of its main characteristics. Thus, it examines its two main sectors : (i) Corporate Barter and (ii) Commercial Barter. Contrary to expectations, the analysis of official data shows that this phenomenon is essentially pro-cyclical for the Commercial Barter component. Moreover, commecial barter activity turns out to be complementary to the cash economy. While the two sectors display some differences in their pattern, they both help firms to increase their profits.E-Barter; Corporate Barter; Economic Cycle

Simulating a Multiproduct Barter Exchange Economy
No full textWe describe a multiproduct barter trading experiment in which students exchange real goods in an open market based on their own personal preference. The experiment is designed for simulating a pure exchange market in order to demonstrate the role of money and its functions in real economies by showing the limitations and inefficiencies of the traditional barter economy. In addition, the simulation is very effective in highlighting some of the key features that an object that serves as money needs to possess in order to function as an efficient medium of exchange, unit of account, and store of value.Roles of Money, Functions of Money, Barter, Exchange Economy, Medium of Exchange, Store of Value, Unit of Account, Experiment, Efficient and Inefficient Medium of Exchange, Types of Money, Fiat Money, Commodity Money, Features of Money, Homogeneity, Divisibility, Durability, Storability, Portability, Scarcity, Efficiency versus Equity, Information Cost
Barter and Business Cycles: A Comment and Further Empirical Evidence
No full textThe purpose of this comment is a critical evaluation of the empirical analysis made by Cresti (2005) and her finding that commercial barter behaves differently than corporate barter during the course of business cycles. Here, we correct the arbitrary replacement of the missing observations by filling them with forecasts using the Box-Jenkins ARMA and Kalman filter methods before performing the unit root and cointegration tests. Although the ECM estimates for various measures of business cycle are occasionally inconsistent, overall the inventory measures and capacity utilization results suggest that barter transactions are counter-cyclical regardless of the size of the business. Additionally, we find that barter rises with inflationary trend, dissemination of access to computer technology, tax rates and tax laws requiring disclosure of barter transactions.Barter, Business Cycles, Error Correction Model, Box-Jenkins ARMA
