Just follow the four transactions using maths only

How much did the owner lose?
A £30
B £70
C £100
D £130
E £170
F £200
I say £100 most say £200?
He first loses 100, then he gives her £70 worth of booze bought with his own money, then gives her 30. He has lost 200.

They either drew 2-2, lost 0-2 or 0-4, depending on if the 2 scored and 2 conceded were one and the same.

Re: Causing arguments this is
For those saying £30 + the wholesale value of the booze, what about taking into account the profit made on the booze had the owner been able to sell them from non-stolen money? Hasn't that profit also been stolen?
So £30 + profit margin (£70 - wholesale value of the booze) + wholesale value of the booze = £100.
