a guy steals 100 dollars from a store and leaves comes back 5 min later and buys 70 dollars worth of stuff and gets 30 dollars in change. how much did the store lose?
$130
To see why...the store is out $100 when the theft occurs.....when the guy comes back and buys $70 worth of stuff the store gets back $70 but also loses $70 worth of merchandise....so.....they are back where they started....down $100.....giving the guy back $30 means they are now down $130
$100
He took $100, then he gave it back so the store lost nothing. But then they had to give him $70 worth of stuff and $30
