Gogo is a local, stable and convertible means of exchange proposed for use in Grand Forks, British Columbia, Canada. Circulation of the Gogo is limited to the area of Grand Forks in southern British Columbia. Its value is based on the value of the Canadian dollar in 1980, and is forever stable at that level. This means that prices in the Gogo will never change. Acceptance of the Gogo dollar in Grand Forks is minimal, and its success is not comparable with other local currencies, such as Ithaca Hours. == Convertibility == The Gogo is convertible with the Canadian dollar, based on the Consumer Price Index at the time of the exchange. For example, in 2001, 1 Gogo cost $2.20 Canadian, which reflects the decline in value of the Canadian dollar of 2001, related to the value of the Canadian dollar in 1980.〔(uleth.ca - Canadian Consumer Price Index changes )〕 The Gogo is a means of exchange and is not made for storing; this is achieved by setting a 5% charge on a yearly basis. Moreover it can only be exchanged into Canadian Dollars at a rate of 95%.〔(sunshinecable.com - presentation of the Gogo )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gogo (economics)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
