  • 2. A medium of exchange (A. Commonly accepted measure of value): This is something widely accepted for the payment of goods and services. Money serves this purpose because most people are willing to accept it.  
  • 3. A standard of deferred payments (C. Credit transactions): This refers to something that can be used to settle debts in the future. Credit transactions involve delayed payment, and the value of the good or service is measured in a common unit (money).
     
  • A store of value (B. Savings done in terms of money): This is something that can hold its value over time. Money allows us to store our purchasing power for future use.
