To while away a footballless season.

 

man steals £100 quid from a shops till and then uses that same £100 to buy £70 worth of goods from the same shop. He gets £30 change.

 How much does the shop lose?

I would say £100 but it's flawed because the £70 of goods wouldnt have actually cost the shop owner £70 so until we know what they paid cost price we can't give an accurate answer lol

Why would the shop be daft enough to give him change?

Because the shop doesn't know he stole the £100 quid?

St Johnstone? The J. Can't think of another team with a J.

Nothing, he gets brutally murdered on the way out and the shop keeper takes his money and stock back.

 

Close thread.

He's lost £100. If the thief had taken £70 stock and £30 from the till, you say the shop had lost £100, and this is no different, someone just added an extra layer to confuse you where he takes the cash.

£100 less any profit made on the shoes.

 

Or £30 plus the cost of the shoes

 

Hopefully both are the same answer.
