$100
Wouldn’t it be 170 lol
$30 + Whatever they paid for those $70 of goods
Kaboom
He spent $70 of the $100 homie.
He lost the cost of the goods and profit, right?
$230. Money in register was made from previous sales of merchandise. Dude lifted a hundred, and bought $70 of merch, which store paid for, and gave him $30 as change. Actually minus mark-up on merch, plus cost of procurement of merch.. But Essentially the store got fucked out of $230. It would be $1k on the police report

100. But he bought 70 in goods. So that’s 170. I guess you add the other cost to the 170…
-$100 out the register
+$100 to pay for goods
-$70 in groceries with stolen money
-$30 cash back

Potential profit. You can't lose what you didn't have.
The real riddle is how much time or fine does the person get if/when they get caught.
And depending on the answer to that first question, was stealing the $100 dollars even worth it?

Just by numbers, the owner lost $100. The rest of the transaction is the same as if I used my own money.
$100
$100.
$70 in groceries, $30 in cash.
$70 in groceries, $30 in cash.
Yup. I spent a minute overthinking this, but this is right.
The grocer doesn't "lose" money in the purchase, because the exchange is equal (70 bucks for 70 dollars in groceries)
He also doesn't lose any in the change exchange (that's just thirty dollars returned that was owed as change).
The only actual loss is the original theft, which was $100.
How much are the goods worth wholesale?
It's 30 plus that amount so more like 60 bucks most likely
This is correct, but my reasoning is
I stole 100.
Then I gave the store back their 100.
At this point the store has lost nothing.
But now they decided to give me $70 in food and $30 in cash.
Now the store has lost $100.
he stole $30 + whatever the wholesale price is for the items purchased with the stolen money. The till is going to come up $100 short.
Is the store owner white? If he is, anything less than death is a robbery.
100 dollars and one inside job employee
Nah 130
The till will be $30 short.
fuck all the dumb shit, he came up $100 that he didn't have.
$170
Stole $100
Goods $70
received $30 of the original $100
owner is out $170
Stole $100
Goods $70
received $30 of the original $100
owner is out $170
I cannot not answer this question, because I didn't see anyone steal.....
It’s 2:00pm est
100+70+30.... remember he had nothing before he stole the 100.l know their going to say but he spent 70 in the store but it comes from the stolen 100 so it's all stolen.
That's like a motherfucker stealing your car and u use Uber for a ride to the police station and it's him whole your car and your car that comes to drop you off to file a report on your stolen car.
The car is still stolen,fuck the u er ride

I teach my students to draw problems like these out. It's designed to deceive
First the register. It was down $-100 but when he paid, that $100 is returned. Register is no longer in a deficit.
Now the man receives $30 back. Register is down $-30 plus the goods he has worth $70.
Store register lost $30 and the store itself lost $70 in goods.
Overall store loss is $100
