Teaching procedures Step one Introduction The function of money: Daily we are dealing with money and wish to be a millionaire at one night? It is a dream, isn’t it? Why there is money existing? What’s the function of the money? Let’s have a brief look in a simple way. Firstly, as a medium of exchange, money permits the separation of exchange into the two distinct acts of buying and selling, without requiring the seller to purchase goods from the person who buys his products, or vice versa. Hence produce who know they will be paid in money, can concentrate on finding the most suitable outlet for their goods. While buyers who will pay in money, can concentrate on finding the cheapest market for the things they wish to purchase. Specialization , which is vital to an advanced economy, is encouraged, because people whose output is not a complete product buy only a part of one in which many others are involved can be paid an amount equivalent to their share of the product. Secondly, another advantage of money is that it is a measure of value- that is, it serves as a unit in terms of which the relative values of different products can be expressed. In a barter economy, there is no money used, which the goods are exchanged with another goods directly. However, the process of establishing relative values of goods would be difficult and time consuming task. Sometimes, it is not work. For instance, if I am trying to barter fish for bananas, a lot would depend on whether the person willing to exchange bananas is or is not keen on fish. Thirdly, money acts as a store of wealth. It is difficult to imagine saving under a barter system. Most products deteriorate fairly rapidly, either physically or in value, as a result of long storage; even if storage were possible, the practice of storing products for years on end would involve obvious disadvantages – imagine a

In a pure exchange economy, we examine the case where two contestable consumption goods are vital to two agents and initial endowments follow a binary distribution. In line with the existing literature, we examine in a two-stage game how the equilibrium security of claims to property is determined. We find that, in equilibrium, two different regimes emerge, depending on the exogenous preference and appropriation effectiveness parameters: Peaceful coexistence and trade and appropriation, with the former regime strictly Pareto-dominating the latter regime. 3.
