	The New Approach to Freedom
		Introducing a time element into barter and giving the acceptor the power to requisition his half from any trader and in any commodity, at any time, is what expedites and multiplies exchange, thus releasing more and greater variety of production and hence raising living standards.
		Money merely permits value in the abstract, dissociated from any specific commodity, to be exchanged for an equivalent value in any commodity at any time or place, at the behest of the holder.
		Such a value unit might be arrived at initially by equating it with the value of any commodity or group of commodities a given point in time.

		The consideration from a barter transaction would, in most cases, be in the form of money's worth (either inherently or as a result of section 21 or section 21A of the Act deeming the consideration to be convertible to cash).
		The consideration from barter or countertrade transactions would fall to be valued as either the money value (section 21 of the Act) or the arm's length value (section 21A of the Act) of that consideration.

		This should have reduced the role of barter since, in theory, if central planning is fully effective, there is no need for barter; all enterprise and personal needs will be anticipated and supplied and the enterprises will conduct their transactions by clearing ruble debts and credits in state-owned banks.
		But barter may lead to a higher tax bill than a cash sale would, since the list price or advertised value of the product is usually higher than the barter value that both parties accept.
		Like barter, the veksel is designed to fill the void caused by the unavailability of cash, and it is widely used not only by private businesses but by the government itself.

		Goods have a Value from the Uses they are apply'd to; And their Value is Greater or Lesser, not so much from their more or less valuable, or necessary Uses: As from the greater or lesser Quantity of them in proportion to the Demand for them.
		And this additional Value is no more Imaginary, than the Value Silver had in Barter as a Mettal, for such Value was because it serv'd such Uses, and was greater or lesser according to the demand for Silver as a Mettal, proportioned to its Quantity.
		Silver was barter'd as it was valued for its Uses as a Metal, and was at first given as Money, according to the value it had in barter.

	T h e Barter B l o g » Why Barter?
		In transactions of value the existence of surrogates causes inefficiencies, which mar the process from extracting the real value that is relative to the individuals or entities involved.
		Barter exchanges which intermediate between traders with barter currencies would qualify as surrogates in this respect and be subject to the same inefficiencies.
		Since some exchanges have rules requiring that their currencies be treated on a 1-to-1 value basis with standard currencies, that is that participants are prohibited from charging higher prices in barter currency than in standard currencies, there may actually be higher inefficiencies.

		Price is also central to marketing where it is one of the four variables in the marketing mix that business people use to develop a marketing plan.
		Historically, price value has superseded the barter value of pre-monetary systems, in which bartering was used to determine a value of a good or service.
		From this point of view, price is akin to opportunity cost, that is, what must be given up in exchange for the good or service that is being purchased.

	Feld Thoughts: Two Last Things On Assumption of Stock Options
		Specifically, if the value of a share of stock in a transaction is $1 and the basis of the stock option is $0.40, the actual value of the stock option at the time of the transaction is $0.60.
		For some bizarre reason, many sellers forget to try to recapture the value of the barter element in the purchase price and allow the total purchase price to be the gross value of the stock options (vested and unvested) rather than getting incremental credit on the purchase price for the barter element.
		Assume – for simplicity – that the buyer is assuming unvested options but including them in the total purchase price (the $100m) and that the total barter element of the vested stock is $1m and the barter element of the unvested stock is $3m.

	Kevin R. Andersen, CPA: Admin. Proc. Rel. No. 34-45502 / March 5, 2002
		The company prematurely recognized revenue on advertising time sold in barter transactions, notwithstanding the fact that the advertising time was indeterminate in value and the advertisements had not been broadcast, in contravention of APB 29 and Financial Accounting Standards Board Concepts Statement No. 5.
		Itex also recognized revenue in inventory swaps whose valuation was not in accord with APB 29, paragraph 21a, which provides that exchanges of inventory held for sale are to be valued at no more than the value of the asset given up.
		The presumed equal status of cash and barter transactions precluded the skeptical inquiry required of Andersen and led to his failure to question certain red flags in the appraisals.

	Money, Value, and Monetary History
		They may have value in themselves, like gold ("commodity" money), or they may not ("credit" money, which means banknotes, bank deposits, tokens, markers, etc.); but their value as money is separate from their intrinsic value.
		What gives money value as such is that it is, or can be, used for exchange, replacing the original human system of trade, which was barter.
		A gold strike would make gold relatively less valuable in relation to silver, which meant that a gold unit of value would have to be marked down in terms of a silver unit of value.

		IMS Barter, now located in 37 U.S. markets, is actively looking for entrepreneurial-minded individuals who are interested in building an IMS Barter office in their local markets.
		Commercial barter cannot achieve its full potential with the current fractured organization of our industry— divided as we are into independent trade networks, each with their own currency, each with their own stable of clients.
		Of course, the spirit of independent ownership is valuable in itself and is not going away, but there are plenty of examples in business history where firms have come together to cooperate in a common venture where they can each have a slice of a larger pie instead of all of a smaller pie.

		According to the EITF, the fair value of advertising space is determinable if a company has a historical practice of receiving cash (or similar consideration) for similar advertising from a third-party buyer in an arm’s-length transaction.
		Furthermore, a company can recognize advertising barter revenue only up to the dollar amount of similar past cash transactions and can only use cash-based advertising with similar characteristics (banner size, web page, time of day, positioning prominence, and duration) to establish fair value of barter advertising.
		Because a company can recognize advertising barter revenue only up to the dollar amount of similar past cash transactions, revenue recognition of future barter transactions will be limited to $100 (the original $200 cash transaction minus the subsequent $100 barter activity).

		Because barter arrangements are not recorded or reported in any systematic manner, our accounting is based on self-reporting by the state agencies.

		The values reported are the approximate retail value of the goods provided and received and do not include any value attributable to increased lottery sales or goodwill.
