Trade & Investment Queensland facts
- A network that allows trade is called a market
- The original form of trade, barter, saw the direct exchange of goods and services for other goods and services
- Barter is trading things without the use of money
- Later one side of the barter started to involve precious metals, which gained symbolic as well as practical importance
- Modern traders generally negotiate through a medium of exchange, such as money
- As a result, buying can be separated from selling, or earning
- The invention of money (and later credit, paper money and non-physical money) greatly simplified and promoted trade
- Trade between two traders is called bilateral trade, while trade between more than two traders is called multilateral trade
- Trade exists due to the specialization and division of labor, in which most people concentrate on a small aspect of production, but use that output in trades for other products and needs
- Trade exists between regions because different regions may have a comparative advantage (perceived or real) in the production of some trade-able commodity—including production of natural resources scarce or limited elsewhere, or because different regions' size may encourage mass production
