Answer:

e) leads to uncertainty about the value of goods traded internationally

Step-by-step explanation:

When a currency has a floating exchange rate, its real value changes on a day-to-day basis. When that happens constantly, traders involved in international business become uncertain about the value of their goods when they step into a foreign market.

When a currency has a fixed exchange rate, that will rarely be a problem.
