You run a shop and someone steals $100

[1970s HeRon Flow]

I say $100 if I do quick math on what the thief came home with, $60 worth of merchandise and $40 in cash

So many idiots on this site, I feel sorry for your mothers

 

[Blackgate]

lets say the person didnt steal the $100...lets say the person walked up to the register and asked for $100 and the cashier gave it to them...the person then puts $60 worth of shyt on the counter and the cashier takes back the $100 and gives $40 in change...does the store lose money?...if yes how much?

This thread is seriously making me reconsider my affiliation with this board

I would've took my money back as well as my supplies from the thief.

If the thief has any other source of money on them that's not coming from me then I'm taking that too.

$200

100$ NET BUT that doesn't take in the offset by the profits from the merchandise.

Sure it's a scam, but you're double counting.

If Joey took $50 from a McDonalds register and then bought $50 worth of food, McDonalds is not out $100.

McDonalds lost $50. The cash exchanged for food was a fair transaction.

But McDonald's losses that 50 cuz it's not a fair exhange. They're getting money that's already theirs.

If I steal 50 dollars from you and then I buy something from you with the same 50 ...how much did you lose?

 

[SteelCitySoldier]

Breh he paid $100 for the $60 item. He still gave up $100 in cash and got $40 back. There's no way he can have $140 in cash.

Its an overall total...smh.
