The last three quarters of the economy have been very strong and the fourth quarter week (Payne, 2014). While the fourth quarter’s poor performance is disappointing from an economic stand it is normal for there to be a weak fourth quarter after three strong quarters (Payne, 2014). All signs show that 2015 should be a year of growth for the US economy. Unemployment is expected to decline while GDP, Business spending and home sales are all expected to increase steadily by the end of 2015 (Payne, 2014). Inflation is expected to increase slightly by .3%, but with the expected growth in consumer spending due to record level job openings there should not be a slowdown of GDP.…

Determining the purity of gold was in its early stages, so weights were used instead. This meant that the miners would not only be forced to carry around a satchel with all of their findings, but would also have a secondary pouch with a scale and some weights. Some miners would weigh their gold differently than others, creating a problem when attempting to buy items. Mints were then created to solve this problem, charging a small amount in order to refine and stamp the user's gold with the correct weight, making it easier for both the miner and the supplier of goods to determine a price. The early gold merchants had a set price for buying gold per ounce. The usual prices were between $8-$16, depending on the ounce, and would later sell their findings for around $18-$20 to other buyers (Doti, 214). These buyers were more concentrated on the East Coast of the United States, as it was rare to find such precious metals in areas such as…
