Today Ana Margarita has been with us. We have continued with the unit, we have seen trades, types of trades, like wholesale trade, retail trade, etc. We have also talk about BOP (balance of payments) that consists on the economic exchanges of a country with another ones, WTO (World Trade Organization) to reduce tariffs and GATT (General Agrements on Tariffs and Trade). We have talk about Mercadona, the difference between when we buy in a market and when the market buy the products.We have learned also that before the invention of money people trade with animals, vegetables or other products. I think that trade was very important in the past, but now is important too, because many people live for this trades. Paqui has said us to read a page for homework.
