We all know about Pepsi, one of the major beverage manufacturers. It swapped the Russian government for the rights to market Stolichnaya vodka in the USA and, in return, they gave the Russian government the rights to market Pepsi products in Russia. No cash changed hands but both parties got a new product and expanded their market share.

Answer 3

Barter is a method of exchange by which goods or services are directly exchanged for other goods or services without using a medium of exchange, such as money. It is usually bilateral, but may be multilateral, and usually exists parallel to monetary systems in most developed countries, though to a very limited extent. Barter usually replaces money as the method of exchange in times of monetary crisis, such as when the currency may be either unstable or simply unavailable for conducting commerce. E.g., hyperinflation or deflationary spiral.
