[QUOTE="svtfocus2cobra, post: 16175148, member: 21786"] Pretty sure we aren't calculating details like profit margin and cost to employ per hour. It appears to be a simple answer but there are two answers depending on how you look at it. Look at it this way: -the guy steals $100 so he now owes you $100. -Then he orders $30 in food so he now owes you $130 total. -He gives you the $100 back so still owes you $30 for the food. -You give him $70 back and the $30 in food which has not been paid for. -So he took $70 in change that wasn't his, $30 in food that he didn't pay for, and then still has the $30 he owed for the food. -The store is out $130 or $100 if you say the $30 not collected from the thief represents the food. I say all three are separate and you account for the change, the food lost, and the payment not received. [/QUOTE]
