"A guy walks into a store and steals $100 from the register without the owners knowledge. 5 minutes later he comes back in and buys $70 worth of goods with the $100. The owner gives back $30 in change. How much money did the owner lose?"

Fixed for accuracy$170![]()
100+30=130.
130-70= 60.
$60.00
100 and 30 dollars is what the guy was given out the register. I added those numbers and subtracted the amount of money the guy spent. I could be wrong but my line of thinking is logical.
nah breh. He came into the store with zero dollars and left with 70 dollars worth of product and 30 dollars worth of cash. Total 100 dollard more value than he walked in with coming from the store owner. Merchandise is potential money, breh
Besides all the attitude and other ho shyt thanks for breaking it down.nah breh. He came into the store with zero dollars and left with 70 dollars worth of product and 30 dollars worth of cash. Total 100 dollard more value than he walked in with coming from the store owner.
If we are being extra technical as a business owner id compute that i lost 30 dollars cash plus the value of goods sold in wholesale value. I get to keep the retail margin and the profit on the 70 dollars purchase
He lost $200 worth imo:
-$100 stolen from register
-$70 shoes from store bought with same stolen money
-$30 in change
depends on his profit margin for the goods. May have bought $70 worth of stuff and the store makes $35. May by $70 and the store makes $5
