Questions 81 to 85 are based on the same passage or dialog.
Prices determine how resources are to be used. They are also the means by which products and services that are in limited supply are rationed (供应，分发) among buyers. The price system of the United States is a very complex network composed of the prices of all the products bought and sold in the economy as well as those of a myriad (极大数量) of services, including labor, professions, transportation, and public-utility (公用事业) services. The interrelationship of all these prices makes up the system of prices. The price of any particular product or service is linked to a broad, complicated system of prices in which everything seems to depend more or less upon everything else.
If one were to ask a group of randomly (任意地) selected individuals to define price, many would reply that price is an amount of money paid by the buyer to the seller of a product or service or, in other words, that price is the money value of a product or service as agreed upon in market transaction. This definition is, of course, valid as far it goes. For a complete understanding of a price in any particular transaction, much more than the money involved must be known. Both the buyer and seller should be familiar with not only the money amount, but with the amount and quality of the product or service to be exchanged, the time and place at which the exchange will take place and payment will be made, the form of money to be used, the credit terms and discounts that apply to the transaction, guarantees (保证) on the product or service, delivery terms, return privilege, and other factors. In other words, both the buyer and seller should be fully
