| Accounting Puzzle You have seen a nice shirt at The Bay , worth $97.00
You don’t have money, you borrowed $50 from your wife and $50 from your girl friend. How much is your money now? (Answer: $100.00, correct?)
You buy the shirt, how much is your change? (answer: $3.00)
You return $ 1.00 to your wife, how much more you owe your wife? (answer: $49.00)
You return $1.00 to your girlfriend, How much more you owe your girlfriend? (answer: $49.00)
The remaining $ 1.00 is with you, correct?
Now, this is the computation : $49(you owe your wife) + $49(you owe your girlfriend)? (ans. Dhs. 98.00)+ $1.00 with you? (ans. $99.00),
WHERE IS THE OTHER $1.00 ?
Now, another computation :
$ 49(you owe your wife) + $1.00 the one you returned to her, equals: $50.00, Correct?
$ 49(you owe your girlfriend) + $1.00 the one you returned to her, equals: $50.00, correct?
$50.00 + $50.00 (ans. $100.00 ) plus $1.00 you keep with you, (ans. $101.00)
HOW HAS IT BECOME MORE ? | |
