The amount of money earned by the customer is the amount of money lost by Master Jiang. The customer earned 48*4=192 yuan from two kilograms of meat; the change was 200-36*4=56 yuan. A total of 248 yuan. So Master Jiang lost 248 yuan. However, he would definitely lose 48 yuan after selling these two kilograms of meat, but he only lost 200 yuan more.

How much the customer earned, how much Master Jiang lost. There is a problem with this sentence. Let's look at two assumptions: 1. If the customer is a clothes seller, the 200 Canadian dollars is the income from selling clothes, and the change is real money. TA did not earn a penny; 2. The customer is a professional Canadian dollar buyer, and the Canadian dollars in his hand are bought with real money. He spent 200 Canadian dollars and "earned" less than 200 dollars.

That is to say, the cost of Canadian dollars is not zero. Therefore, the saying that "what the customer earns is what Mr. Jiang loses" is not true.

The neighbor didn't lose anything. The customer got the change + meat, which was compensated by the butcher. 56+48*4 = 248

What the liar gets is what Master Jiang loses.

There are too many questions like this: three college students stay in a hotel, the boss returns the money... buy shoes... sell clothes and find fake money I first saw it in my elementary school summer homework

Wow, with your IQ, you actually made a mistake in the calculation. I'm so sorry that you often do this kind of questions.

Alas, I am too lazy to even calculate it, because I know that even if I calculate it correctly, I can’t do business. . . .

If the customer who bought the beef was not a liar and gave Master Jiang real money, how much did Master Jiang lose? If the customer did not buy Master Jiang's beef at all, but looked at it and walked away, how much did Master Jiang lose? Didn't Master Jiang only buy four catties of beef in the morning? Didn't he sell all the goods at 36 yuan per catty after buying them?

The question is not rigorous enough. It should be asked: How much money did you lose in the transaction with the scammer who took 200 yuan of fake money to buy meat? The beef in this transaction was bought at 48 yuan per catty and "sold" to the scammer at 36 yuan per catty. Then the answer is unique. What did the scammer take away? 4 catties of beef and 56 yuan in cash (200-4*36=56). Lao Jiang spent 192 yuan to buy these 4 catties of beef. Add the 56 yuan in cash that was cheated away. After the transaction was completed, Lao Jiang's wealth was reduced by 248 yuan. The biggest question is, who is Lao Jiang?

The title was posted by awey in the QQ group. Respect intellectual property rights and do not change them arbitrarily. My opinion is similar to maychang. The tail goods of retail goods are depreciated. When setting prices in the early stage of sales, you should be prepared to throw away a small number of tail goods.

Customers' counterfeit banknotes also cost money

The loss of only 200 is the loss of fake money. There is an old saying in the countryside, "Eat fresh in the morning market and eat cheap in the evening market." Selling at a price lower than the cost price at night is not a loss, but a normal sales method.

I think that when this 4 catties of beef was traded at the "market price" of 36 yuan, in Master Jiang's mind, this beef was worth at most 36 yuan per catty.

For a fruit seller, as long as he can sell 70% of a box of fruit, he will break even. Even if he earns only a penny from the rest, he will still make a profit.
