Answer:

A. money no longer functions as a good store of value and people may resort to barter transactions on a much larger scale.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hyper Inflation can be defined as inflation i.e price rise occuring at highly accelerating pace.

Such exponentially rising prices reduce the value (purchasing power) of money.

So - people don't use it as a 'store of value' (saving for future purposes), since its future value is anticipated to be very lower. It is also used less as a 'medium of exchange' (transaction purposes), because of its less purchasing power.
