Chocolate industry -- Costs.
Commodity-backed bonds.
Gold standard.
Why did people exert considerable eort ongold production when chocolate is cheaper and it can serve as money as well? Production costs determine a commodity’s use as money, as a consumption good, or as both. Three results emerge: rst, the production must be costly enough for a commodity to become money. Second, the relationships between costs and both, monetary supply and monetary trade, are, non-monotonic. Third, production costs determine the transaction value of a commodity when it is used as money only. This results supports a conjecture of Jevons that a good must be valued to function as money.
