Solution

The velocity of money is calculated by dividing the total spending in the economy by the money supply.

In this case, the total spending on bread is the price of bread multiplied by the quantity produced, which is 102000=10 * 2000 = 20,000.

The money supply is given as $5,000.

So, the velocity of money is 20,000/20,000 / 5,000 = 4.

Therefore, the correct answer is B. 4.
