How'd he get $40 in change?
at my reading comprehension.
I need some sleep.
You run a shop and someone steals $100
- Thread starter sportscribe
- Start date
the owner only gives him 40 in change cuz he overpaid for 60 in goods with 100 in cash
the thief only stole 100 cash
then got 60 in goods and 40 cash cuz he paid for 60 in goods with 100 in cash
the owner only lost 100 cuz simply selling shyt and giving people their change isn't a loss
Lmao its okay to not understand the question and get it wrong but I am dying at the mfers coming in here calling everyone retarded insulting math teachers and the education system then say its 140 $ or 200$ lost 
its 100$ lost you retards
its 100$ lost you retards

Bunch of fukking retards browsing the coli, you idiots brain must explode when its time to give back change like

Dude takes a $100...
You are now at -$100
He gives you the $100 back....
You are now at $0
You give him $60 worth of merch
You are now at -$60
Then $40
You are now at -$100
Math was my worst subject too.

If ur selling shyt and giving change when u are already at a loss then yea it is a loss
He takes the hundred so you're at -100
He comes back and gives you back the hundred, you're at 0
You give him 60$ in merchandise and 40 dollars in change. You do the math.
no it makes no difference it's not an additional loss
he just traded for $60 in goods with $60 cash that's an even trade
the part where the storekeeper loses is when he loses $100 by theft
in reality selling $60 in goods for $60 cash lessens the loss since you're making money by selling stuff
which is why i said on first page, if your store doesn't sell a lot of shyt then the thief buying something sort of lessons the loss since he gave some of it back, giving you some profit
but if you're a busy store that's gonna sell that stuff regardless then you did lose the full $100, the fact that he bought something doesn't matter cuz the next man would've bought it anyway
Op posted this because there are dumb mfers like you in this world that not only can't think logically but can't even admit when they're wrong. Look at your posts you've stopped even responding to the logical arguments and are now sitting by waiting and hoping for the OP to save your ass

-100(stolen money)
+60 (money back due to merchandise)
-60(merchandise loss. U can't make a profit off your own money. You're basically swapping the $60 in cash for the merchandise. This is where people get confused)
-40 (change given back)
-100+60-60-40= -140
That's why it's a trick question which is what I'm getting at. U can get a totally different answer writing it out as a math variable in a different way which most of these questions require u to do so. I said my piece so I'm off to sleep. Just gotta wait for OP to reply

Look at the third reply. Ur basically swapping out the cash for merchandise as a loss yet u dumbasses keep making it as a gain. Get the fukk outta here simpleton and go learn math
you got 100 money back not 60
you act like the thief paid for 60 in merch with 60, then you gave him 40 change back that he doesn't even deserve
Where is this +60 from stolen merchandise coming from? You're over thinking this.
He basically comes in and robs the place and asks for a PS4 game and 40 bucks. The fact that he stole the 100 dollars is irrelavant since he gives it back.
you dumb as shyt. Why would you give him 40 dollars back if he gave you 60 dollars for 60 dollars of merchandize?
