>>522734820You lost the cow so youve won NOTHING. No tasty milk, no delicious beef. NOTHING.
>>522734820The answer is 300. Are you mentally disabled
>>522734820whats with the memeflag bro
>>522734820-800 + 1000 - 1100 + 1300200 - 1100 + 1300-900 + 1300400
>>522734820>nothing about milk production and how much revenue it generated>nothing about upkeeping costsNot enough information to answer
>>522734820The profit purely from the arbitrage is 400, minus 100 for driving up the price of cows in the process.
>>522734990it's over
>>522734820It's 400 whether you calculate the profit each time and add them or treat it like a running balance as shown below0 (start)-800 (you bought)+1000 (you sold)Currently at +200-1100 (bought)Now at -900 balance.+1300 sold400 balance
>>522734820you forgot about kikefee interest, you are now -$300 in deficit
>>522735061Geographically disabled.Fallacious equivocation of representation.
>>522735042could you afford the second cow?you only have 1000the cow costs 1100you own nothing
300, retards.
>>522735177>I regret nothing but I hope holding this sign gives me some sweet sweet attention
>>522734820>thinks hes smartif you held the goy til maturity instead of selling and buying back you would have made $500
>>522734820What about the taxes and fees? Also, you got a license to trade beef cattle? Have you properly displayed your mandatory copies of the animal's medical history? Also, it's tuesday, did you pay your fee?
>>522735254You just assume the guy pulled it from somewhere interest free
>>522735305therefore, the real answer is he lost $100 on speculation
>>522735254Double digit IQ drug dealers are smarter than this
Pretty sure the 100 difference between the 1000 and 1100 doesn't matter at all, you bought low and sold high twice so you gained 400 all day
>>522734820cow is not whore for sale, saar
>All the retards ITT who think the 800 or 1100 was a loan Just because you faggots don't have cash on hand when making a deal doesn't mean most of the world submits to the kike banks>>522735305>>522735365These are the only real answers
In the meantime inflation caused the value of the dollar to decrease by 10% and the value of cows to soar by an incredible 15%. Also there is the taxman coming for your earnings and you have to pay a 136% tariff twice because you bought the cow from China.
>>522735317He also forgot to state the cost of upkeep for the cow for the time it was his
>>522735362a man with magic pockets that lend out interest free money?!why would this infinite money wizard waste his time buying and selling cows?
300. Took, 5 seconds in my head. Holy fuck this board is retarded, no wonder there's unironic flerth spam.
>>522734820then the jew killed the cow
>>522735476For real, he could take his money creation powers and found a new Jewish owned central bank with it!
>>522735042>>522735263Show your work, brainlets.
>>5227348200$. You stole 300$ by speculating and earned nothing.
>>522735254>you only have 1000You are incorrectly assuming that this person's only source of income was selling this one cow. Where did you get the 800 before you bought the cow? From that same source, you also have the additional $100 needed to buy the cow for $1100 later.
How much did you spend to house, feed and transport the cow? How much did you profit off of it's outputs (eg Milk, manure, calves, etc), if any? Did you pay any taxes on the transaction? How much did the cow depreciate while you owned it? How much inflation occured?
>>522735445>cash just appears and is "on hand"Wtf you babbling about
>>522735254By that logic how did they get 800?
>>522735589Gross $2Invest $1Gross an additional $2=$3Idiot
1001000-800 =200800+200 =1000 meaning you spent extra 100 for the 1100 so you are now -100. you sold it at 1300 and made 200 so you made only 100.
>>522734820800-1000=-200, lost 2001100-1000=100, got 1001300-1100=-200, lost 200100-400=-300
>politically incorrect?
>>522734820He earned $1300 by selling the cow the final time you fucking retards it says it right there>B-but he started with-That shit does not matter for this problem. The question is not how much he profited as they would say profited if they meant it that way, but how much he earned at the end. Which is the full amount the cow sold for
>>522734820This proves that most people are effectively illiterate when it comes to understanding how money worksIt's 400 btw
>>522734820Why is everyone being a retard? Just do 2 separate calculations with buy/sell pairs. First is 200 and second is 200. Over engineering assholes
>>522735606Correct>>522735042>>522735263>>522735595>>522735476Common core retards don't know how to use a balance sheet
>>522734820here you are goy dont spend it all in one place
>>522735790It's two separate trasnactions carrying a $200 profit. $200+$200=$400Retard.
>>522735474There's probably some penalties on all his late filings too. He should have just complied
>>522734990You didn't have that cow beforehand, but in a manner of speaking it's a zero sum game, in fact an investment loss of 100, guess I'll quote the OP too.>>522734820If you bought a cow for 800 that's later worth 1300, and made 400 profit trading it, then you lost 100 in value as well as its future growth potential, but one may have to consider inflation.>diamond cow hands
>>522734820You earn nothing and likely lose money.
>>522735547Well you did it wrong, so you're a dumbass. I'll show my work let's see yours.You start off with $900.You buy a cow for $800, so now you have $100 dollars and a cow Sell cow for $1000, you now have $1100.Buy cow back for $1100, you now have a cow and $0.Sell cow for $1300.You started with $900 and ended with $1300, meaning you came up $400.
>>522735908joo
>>522734820the real profits is the sex with the cows we had along the way
>>522734820You started with 800$, you bought a cow for 800$ and sold it to the goyim for 1000$, netting you a 200 profit, but thats irrelevant to the final calculation. With your 1000$ you decided to go 100$ in debt to buy another cow at 1100$. You sell it for 1300$ which is a profit of 200 from the transaction, but you still have 100$ in debt to pay back. Since you are jewish, there is no interest on that loan. Realizing that youve swindled yourself, you head to the local yoshiva and donate your 100$ to your cousin moshie. Moshie then quietly hands you 90$ back. You report to the irs that you made 0 revenue this year and are owed a 100$ tax credit, bringing your total earnings to 190$.
>>522735909Yeah, so the answer is he owes the goverment probably about $400 that they will send straight to Israel once he's paid up.
The insistent longing for confusion and retardation in the overwhelming presence of clarity.
>>522735984>You start off with $900.Where did you get this from?
>>522734820The GDP increased by $4,200.
>>5227348202001000-800=200but he’s staring again with 1100 so he’s 1000-1100= -100 total the second time selling at 1300 he’s back to just 200 profit. He made no lonely doing it a second time, that is why Bitcoin is not a good investment anymore. The gains are much smaller and the risk is too high.
>>5227348200-800=-800+1000=+200-1100=-900+1300=400
>>522736317The only important metric here
>>522734820According to the government, you've earned $2300 and need to pony the fuck up now
>>522735787>>522736332This but I’m retRded
>>522736289Just a different way of wording the base assumptions:Assumption 1: He borrows 800Assumption 2: He later borrows 100Start with 800, sell for 1000He made 200 in profit, holds 1000He borrows 100, holds 1100Buys for 1100, sells for 1300He made 200 in profit again.Holds 1300Repays 800 + 100 -> 1300 - 900 = double entry bookkeeping discovered.
>>522735589there's no need to, stupid people won't get it and smart people don't need to do it on paperdo your own homework you dumb faggot
>>522736289Pay attention, Andrew, you retard. Start at any number and follow the transactions and you end up 400 over where you started.He pulled the 900 as an example to show how the retards saying the 100 in difference between the 1100 buy and the 1000 sell prior have no bearing on the result since if you start off with $100 extra and don't have to borrow it at the start, you're still 400 up in the end
i hate americans
Undefined. Earned for what?
>>522736569he earned 2300 dollars pls pay taxes now ty.
>>522734820Bought cow for 1900Sold cow for 23002300-1900 = 400
>>522736289It's inherent in the question retard >You buy a cow for $800Well we know farmer anon has at least $800 at the start.>You buy it back for $1100But farmer anon only sold it for $1000, the fact that they are able to purchase it again for $1100 means they had an extra $100.We know farmer anon has access to at least $900 at the start because the scenario posed requires that.
>>522736455That's not a double bookkeeping entry, you chingus. Assets = liabilities + EquityThey're two different transactions recorded on the journal
>>522736670this is a data mining thread designed to gauge the basic economic knowledge of the community. there is no right answer because not enough information was provided. he earned 100$, 200$, 400$, 300$, 2300$ and 0 due to taxes, fees, and loans, depending on how you frame it and which definitions you use.
>>522734820How much did it cost to feed it?How much was the sales tax?Were there extra costs like transportation to the cow auction, medical exams by an independent veterinarian, mandatory insurance fees, etc?You'll be lucky to make a profit at all.
>>522736499Ok. Let's start with 800.800>bought cow for 800800 - 800 = 0>sold cow for 10000 + 1000 = 1000 (profit = 1000 - 800 = 200)>bought cow for 11001000 - 1100 = -100>sold cow for 1300-100 + 1300 = 1200 (profit = 1200 - 1100 = 100)>total profit = 200 + 100 = 300Explain how this is wrong.
>>522736289>Where did you get this from?Who cares?
He did 2 deals each with a profit of 200. If you don't get 400 from that, you are certified Goytarded and should find a local jew to manage your money for you.
>>522736144That looks to be the state of things
>>522734820Lots of retarded faggots in here that never learned the phrase "cost basis" before. He bought cow 1 for $800, and sold it for $1000. That is a gain of $200. He then bought it for $1,100 and sold it for $1,300, that is a gain of $200. He has made a profit of $400. I am always impressed by the boundless stupidity of some on this board, but never surprised. Keep being retarded you morons that failed basic math, you are endlessly fascinating.
>>522736825Opportunity Cost from underpricing counts as lost earnings plus logistics and fees for buying and selling a cow twice erase all suboptimal gains and you end up losing hundreds.
>>522735790>1100-1000=100, got 100That's an opportunity cost not a real cost.She had an opportunity to make $1300-$800=$500, but being an emotional woman she fucked up and made $100 less leaving $400.Or you can ignore opportunities and just do 2 x $200.
>>522734820You just inflated price of beef you dumb motherfucker
>>522736825Its wrong because you're mixing up calculations of profit with calculations of the farmers bank account. You need to stick to tracking one or the other.In the step where you subtract 1000-1100 you get -100 but you're forgetting that the farmer has $100 profit that they've invested in the cow. That's not reflected in their bank account.We know the farmer has at least $900 at the start ($800 for first purchase then they add another $100 when they buy it back) they end up with $1300 meaning they gained $400.
>>522734820Haitians ate the cow so you have nothing
>>522734820For tax reasons 400, for real reasons 200.
>>522736825Retained earnings (sales revenue) increase the assets and equity section of the balance sheet, whereas purchases increase liabilities and assetsStart at 0800 = 800 + 0 first buy1000 = 800 + 200 first sell1100 = 900 + 200 second buy1300 = 900 + 400 second sell
>>522734820$200
If he had the extra $100 to buy the cow a second time, then he earned $200 in total from both transactions.If he had to borrow $100, then that ate into his profits and he earned $100 in total.
I hope you get taxed for $2300. Fuck the rich.
>>522734820You're doing it in the way that disgusting jews do their taxes.He earned 300$ total.
>>522736613Well fuck. Technically, this guy has a point. We all made the logical jump that "earn" = profit, whereas the government or businesses might refer to their revenues as their "earnings", and most profit as profit explicitly
>>522737487Shouldn't it be the other way around?For tax reasons I made my company buy a $4000 gaming PC so my company's profit is $4000 less and thus less tax is owed. For real reasons I have a sweet new gaming PC that I'll just write off and never pay any taxes over.
>>522734820$2300 in revenue, $400 in net profit.
>>522734820ackshually you're 300 bucks in the hole compared to step zero, but gdp line go up and govt has income to tax, so it's even worse than 300 bucks down.
>>522737878>net profit.Gross profit - still have to pay taxes.
you are not accounting for the property tax he paid each year while owning the cow, nor the sales tax he incurred on each sale of the cow
>>522737993oh right

>>522736825>Explain how this is wrong.I think you would get difficult with big words, so why don't you try and explain to the class why you chose to start your thought experiment with $800, and then think about any investment you have ever purchased in your life. Try and apply the thought process you used here. Can you see why it is not an appropriate methodology?
>>522735790assumed initial balance: 1000buy: - 800; balance: 200sell: + 1000; balance: 1200buy: - 1100; balance; 100sell: + 1300; balance: 1400;initial balance increased by 400.initial investment of 800 made a 50% return, during time x. could have been higher, had the second/third transaction not taken place.
>>522737814He's retarded. It's clearly 400 as doing the math shows.You have a point (to an extent). You reduced your business's taxable income, but you can't ever earn less by making another dollar even if your company enter a new tax bracket (most tax systems are "progressive"; they charge income you made within certain ranges at different rates)So yeah, your taxable income (of was reduced by 4000, but that's still like 3000 (assuming a 25% tax rate overall) you could've reinvested in your actual business
>>522734820>bought a cow for $800>bunch of bullshit happens>end up with that same cow>sell it for $1300$500 profit. 1pbtid and I don’t care about your opinion because I won’t be back .

>>522738435AI not only talks like a redditor but has the intelligence of one, too
>>522738168>you could've reinvested in your actual businessBut then I wouldn't have my gaming PC.And my company is making and selling software and there isn't really much I can invest in that I haven't done already.As for taxes, if I bought that gaming PC as a private individual I'd have to pay 49,5% income tax plus 21% sales tax which is 80.9% because of how numbers work so I'd have to pay $4000+$3236 instead of just $4000 if I didn't own my own company.

>>522734820How do I buy the cow again when I have only 1000 after sales. What's the credit rating, is there a loan at how much % pa, do I have liquid capital besides the 800 initial for the cow? Is there a cow black market because no sales taxes included?No maintenance costs for the cow indicated. So I did earn nothing, risk is not clear on this. May somebody else take the risk and buy the cow from the cow black market and get busted for illegal cow trading.
>>522736825Someone gets it. I did it in my head, and got called a retard. lmao
>>522738779I get that you're joking, but for everyone here who doesn't understand basic finance and looks at your post...Your paying sales tax on the purchase, not income tax on it. ALBEIT, if you purchased it yourself, you would have to use one of your non-business accounts to do so, meaning you would need to have 4000 in that account for that purchase, and that means that you would have to make a $4000 or larger deposit in the bank for you to have the funds to pay for the PC.Of course, bank deposits can be tracked to show what your income is. So yeah, possibly if you deposit a lot of money in the bank, you would have to pay income tax on the income of yours is provable and also pay sales tax when buying anything.What I'm getting at is I think there's a sweet scheme for the person who wants to pay less tax overall wherein that person's deposits in the bank amount to just under the standard deductible (the minimum amount of money you have to make more than to start paying income taxes) and they use that money to buy whatever luxury goods they want while only paying sales or vat taxes, which are both lower than corporate tax rates.I.e. deposit just under the amount of the standard deductible to your bank and use that to buy stuff and then have the rest of your earnings either off grid or 0 and have the business pay all your housing expenses IF the corporate tax rate is lower than vat, income, and sales tax combined (otherwise you would still be better off just paying your income/salary with that business money)Of course, one may have to get a small amount of money returned to them from income tax filing if they're a regular worker that can score under the standard deductible since if they were hired w2 (hourly; in the states), income taxes were taken out when you get paidAlbeit, you're a business owner, so you're probably not getting taxed or paid hourly anyways
im struggling very hard to try and see how people are getting 300.these are not even big numbers. you can even take out the 00s so its $8, $10, $11, and $13.
>>522738177this
>>522734820Those who said 400 answered wrong. You didn't pay taxes and you are going to sell.You should say you earned nothing and only made losses, this way you can circumvent the taxation jewThe richest people in the world are deep in the red, how come?
Minus 500 from the taxes.
>>522737372We do not 'know' that he has money at all.We do not 'know' that it wasn't from his bank account, or a loan. We do not 'know' anything more than what is present.However, if we are talking about 'earn' it would be 400. The problem with that, is that most of us use our logic past what is present, which would allow us to get to 300. Simple as.
>>522734820I earned 400, but pretend I made 300 because I'd rather pay taxes on 300 then 400.
He spends $800 on a cow. Don't worry about what happens in the middle. He sells that same cow in the end for $1300. He makes $500.
>>522740717Cash transaction. I earned nothing on paper.. This never happened.
>>522740253>Your paying sales tax on the purchase, not income tax on it.You pay both, it doesn't matter when.If I (as a business owner) want to buy something as a private individual I have to pay sales tax and I also have to transfer money from my business account to my private account at some point and pay income tax over that amount.But if I buy something as a company I don't pay "sales" tax (VAT) and I don't pay income tax.(usually I do pay VAT initially but I also get to charge my customers VAT and have to pay the government the difference so I really only pay VAT over the profit not the revenue hence "value added")
>>522736825the anons that summarize income vs. expenses, explain it best. like your bank account statement has two columns for in and out, and a continuous balance.for the example it doesn't matter if you start with a positive balance. the transactions lead to a gain of 400 as you effectively spend 900 to make 1300.
Retards fail to account for the interest charged between purchase and sale of cow. You don't take out a $800/$1000 loan and just "pay it back", there's interest involved you fucking niggers.
1000-800=2001300-1100=200200+200=400How is this hard, it's two separate math problems and you make a 3rd adding the results of the previous 2 problems
>>522740355You pulled a 100 to make the 1100 buy
>>522734820400
>>522734820Hey, that's my investment strategy
>>522741238It's never stated how much you originally have, this is a problem designed for kindergarten so it's simply assumed you have enough to just make the 1100 purchase.
>>522735984Shut the fuck up idiot get off this board. It’s $300 earned you moron

>>522736825>profit = 1200 - 1100>1100Where did that come from? If you're starting from the second base to calculate the profit, shouldn't it be from the initial 1000?The -100 debt has already been covered which is how you landed on 1200 instead of 1300.
>>522734820300. You invested 800 bucks to buy a female human cow, then another 100 bucks and ultimately sold it for 1300. That means you turned a profit of 300.
>>522741750please reconsider 1300 - 900
>>522740140>got called a retardbecause your intuition told you to group the added 100 to buy the cow at 1100 with the second sale, when, in reality, they are seperate events and the guy made 200 on each trade.
-800 + 1000 -1100 +1300 = 400
>$400 profit You actually lost money after paying taxes on those transactions.
>>522741412incorrect. it's 400. The easiest way to gauge this is to start with an arbitrary amount and you add/subtract to your initial total according to the problem and compare the finishing amount to the starting amount.Go back to india, brown boy.
>>522741053Bro, you missed my point. I said it in the third or second paragraph that as a private individual, you pay sales tax and income tax (in essence, only IF YOUR INCOME IS ABOVE THE STANDARD DEDUCTIBLE)That's where my scheme comes into pay. Only pay yourself as a private individual up to the standard deductible and buy with that first. Whatever income taxes you paid up to that amount will get refunded to you when you do your tax return the following yearThen compare the sum of income + vat + sales tax against corporate tax rate and pay yourself or buy stuff for yourself based on whether the sum or the corporate tax rate is lower at the given income bracket as you make more money in the business
>>522741834Oh you are right.
>>522741965basics of book keeping should be taught in school. just as grocery shopping, cooking and managing a household with kids. we'll get there.
And now we discuss the tax on each of those transactions and figure out where that money comes from.
>>522741116No loan is mentioned. As far as I am concerned he is using money stashed in his personal safe.

And everyone always had pocketknives, even most of the girlsUrban youths will never understand
>>522742517it's an overdraft at modest 14% per week. now we don't know how quickly this cow hustling went. the cost could be negligible. with inflation you gotta be fast. with deflation, oh no.
>>522735042How much money you got in each step.1. 8002. 03. 10004. -1005. 13001300-800=200
>>522735208This is indeed correct
>>522736825You recuperate that -100 upon selling the second cowSuppose you repeated this procedure 3 times. If your profit was 300 then youwould gain 900 across all 3 loops. If your profit was 400 then you would gain 1200
>>522742716Im sorry number 5 is 1200So 1200-800=100
>>522742865>1200-800=100kek
Le first sell = +200Le buyback = -100 Le final sell = +2003 hundo.
>>522734820Bank: 900Bank post purchase: 900-800=100Bank post sale: 100+1000=1100Bank post second purchase 2: 1100-1100=0Bank post second sale: 1300Earning: 1300-900=400
>>522742865>1200-800=100
>>522742188Our tax laws are obviously different from yours.For starters here it's mandatory for business owners to pay themselves a minimum salary of €56K which already puts me in the highest tax bracket.In my scenario I'd assume I pay myself €60,840 to pay for the gaming PC+21% VAT.This means I also have to pay 49.5% over that extra €4,850.When my company buys it I pay zero taxes because it's a business expense.Corporate taxes only apply to profits here so at most I pay it over the money I save and only if I decide not to buy something else with it.Corporate taxes are 19% here so lower than VAT even.
>>522734820A shit question deserves a shit answer such as 400 if this happened in a single bull run in the cow market this dude is a pussy that burned 25% extra profit.
>>522735061Its an anonymous imageboard stupid ass
>>5227348201. No bank loans without interest rate.2. No retard sells and buys instantly at such huge different rates; they could keep cutting the middle men until there's only one owner left (no selling or buying at this point).3. because of all the retardedness mentioned above, the question is too retarded to answer.But assume that you do want to retard your way into an answer:>first instant difference in purchasing and selling prices = net 200 (ignore capital for now)>second instant difference in purchasing and selling prices = net 200 (ignore capital again)>"How much did I earn?">125% roi in first investment ... but instantly which doesn't make sense>a relatively smaller 118.18% roi in second investment ... also doesn't make sense if it happens instantlyBut what if there was some time between buying and selling the cow ... say, for a year or so? Well, this scenario would make sense in that case. Actually, it's pretty standard at this point; that's what herdsmen do ... well, they breed them or buy them as tiny calves ... but you get the point. >how much did it cost you to feed, house, clean after it, etc.?>add that to the initial cost>do the maths>and you have your new realistic roi
>>522743109>56k>Highest tax bracketAlright. I'll stop. Lol
>>522742188bro how do i incorporate myself?
>>522742953>Le final sell = +200*+300
If your answer doesn't look like this you aren't White.
$100, after paying back the $100 loan you got to buy at $1100
>>522734820Earned $300 any other answer is a clown's answer
>>522734820>Total expenses: -$1900 (-$800 + -$1100)>Total revenue: $2300 ($1000 + $1300)>Total profit: $400 ($2300 - $1900)How do you $300 brainlets fuck up something this basic?
>>522743410dont you mean $76
>>522734820Bought for 800 sold for 1000 is a profit of 200 bucks. TOTAL 1200. 1200 total buying 1100 leaves 100 dollars left over. TOTAL 100Sold for 1300 minus 1100 is a profit of 200 bucks plus the 100 dollars total from before. Profit 300. Earnings 300 dollars. I did this in my head btw.
300 bluds rn
Wow ash conformity retards kek the answer is $400
>>522743221You make a company by paying a small fee in your state to give you a business licenseWhether you name yourself as that company is up to you
>>522740941The road is for cars. Not for sleeping.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qClBRaretEk
Two separate transactions where the farmer netted $200 each time. $400 total.
>>522735220You can’t tax a cow retard
>>522735208You aren't considering the lost earning potential of holding the cow that the government wants to tax you on or their cut of each sale.
>>522743458passionate claim, but wrong.-800 +1000-1100 +1300_____________-1900 +2300 = 400
>>522743822then the government will poison the cow
First time around, the profit is $200. The second time alone the profit is $200. CUMULATIVELY we can argue the profit is $400, but, all in all, the profit is $200, each time sold.
>>522743522100 dollars of your profit was reinvested.
>>522743631Start doing the calculations from literally any starting point and you will end up $400 ahead. You are obviously not very good at doing calculations in your head, so you should probably stop.
>>522734820You earned nothing because you didn't do any work you massive nigger.
>>522743935well the cow got older
>>522735984You start with = 10kBuy cow for 800 = 9.2kSell cow for 1000 = 10.2kBuy cow for 1100 = 9.1kSell cow for 1300 = 10.4kNet profit 400EZ, do a flip faggot
>>522735042you calculated on profit and that's when you made logical mistake>>522735134this guy was first to give corect answer but hi used some shit explanation i do not understandlets say you have capital of 2000$ 2000 - 800 = 12001200 + 1000 =22002200-1100 = 11001100+1300 = 2400 2400 - 2000 = 400you have gained 400$
Either 100 dollars of your profit was reinvested or you moved an extra 100 dollar loan from somewhere that you pay at the end. Its not rocket science guys.
>>522734820Less than 400,as you had to feed the heffer.Reminds me of OP's mom.Bitch had udders and 4 stomachs.
>>522743811>taxcattle
>>522743915Your point being?>100% arbitrary starting balance: $1,000>purchased cow: -$800 (expense)>new balance: $200>sold cow: +$1000 (revenue)>new balance: $1200>purchased cow: -$1100 (expense)>new balance: $100>sold cow: +$1300 (revenue)>new balance: $1400Balance after all transactions are accounted for is $400 higher than your starting balance meaning you end up in profit by $400, you fantastically retarded huehuenigger.
>>522736289>>522744071Meant for you, faggot
>>522744280You're an idiot. Starting balance is $800.
>>522734820you earned 0 fat $ because you stole it from retard
>>522743915maybe see it as a story of two buy and sell episodes over a week. he buys a cow two times and sells it two times. different investments but each time making 200. doesn't matter where the amount for purchase came from. the question is unspecific, hence must relate to both transactions combined. thus 400 and it must be bots pretending to not understand. nice slide.
>>522734820It's 500 retards. >buying cow -800>selling cow +1000>buying cow -1100>selling cow +1300>selling cow dung on Indian Amazon +100Total: +500
>>522736809Wrong, you absolutely blackest gorilla nigger.
give the poor sap his 400 bucks back, you fuckingjew
>>522744447Nice
>>522743719What happens on the road stays on the road. When you start with 800l of petrol and you finish with 1300...you've gained 500l. Let there be an end to this horror.
>>522742865>1200-800=100Kek
>>522734820oh god I'm retarded. I got 300.0 - 800 + 1000 = 200 profitPutting 100 of my own money so I can buy at 1100 puts me at 100 profitSelling at 1300 then puts me at 300 profit. That's my answer despite seeing other proofs here that make sense too, but the wording of the question is vague so its open for interpretation. I am a retard tho
>>522744371Starting balance is arbitrary nigger, and wholly irrelevant. Even if the balance starts at fucking 0, you still arrive at $400 at the end.
Unbelievable. Americanoids has same level of mental disorder as niggers. 2nd class school world problem. I bet you cant even solve simple math problem. Try to solve 3 * 3 + 3 : 3 - 3 = ?
>>522744447It's time to log off
>>522744371>Starting balance is $800.Like anyone could even know that.
>>522744573>Arbitrary>IrrelevantYet, here you are going on about it. No shit
>>522734820it depends, maybe you put some bull creampie in the cow pussy so it can have lil cows? That's pretty the buck!
>>522744540Don't sniff petrol from a can...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nt0NcaxmGHo
>>522744640The starting balance is arbitrary, and serves for no other purpose than to anchor the calculations at a fixed root point to make it easier for retards to comprehend. You were absolutely spoonfed and still somehow entirely missed.
>>522744817It's arbitrary. Move on now
>>522734820$300 because you buy cow back 100 more than you sold for first time which eat into your profit when you sell second time
>>522734820You think it's $400 but that's before the tax man takes half of it
>>522744540what happens when you run on negative petrol?
>>522734820COW $800, BAL -$800SALE, COW $1,000, BAL $200COW $1,100, BAL -$100SALE, COW $1,300, BAL $200kek I am a retard
>>522744938>profitOP's picture says "earn" tho. It says nothing about profit.
>>522744560You, like many others, are ignoring the 100 you still have as profit in the end.
>>522734820the correct answer is you built an excreased GDP of 4200$
>start with 800>end with 1300The answer is 500.There sure are a lot of stupid mother fuckers on this board.
>>522745049and created jobs along the way
>>522744817>>522745098Omfg
>>5227449623rd bal is -900 and then + 1300 = 400
>>522744560The 100 debt is just used to close the 100 gap between the profits, it doesn't actually account for anything. It's just like leaping.
>>522744938Try it without any profit. I borrow 100 and buy a cow for 1200. I then sell the same cow for 1200, and pay back the 100. Have I lost 100?
>>522734820What's with the assumptions about needing loans? The problem statement says nothing about that. So the answer is just 400 using 3rd grade arithmetic.
>>522744815You go faster
>>522744938Say you borrowed the 800 plus the 100 (that, as you say, eat into your profit).How much is 1300 (your holdings at the last sale) minus 900 (800 + 100)?1300-900, you can do it.
>>522745098Did you forget the part where he paper handed in the middle and lost 100 in potential profits?
>>522744944You're caught in a trap and you can't go back
>>522735042>>522738189>Update: I am retardedIt's okay, you are a pajeet memeflag. No one expects you to be able to do basic mental arithmetic. But at least you admitted your error, which makes you better than every other jeet on the planet who wouldn't have done that.

I've never interacted with an Aussie on this board who wasn't a complete fucking retard. I know I'm not alone in this experience
>>522745293>I can stop anytime I want.Says local man addicted to brake fluid.
>>522743631>1200 total buying 1100 leaves 100 dollars left overThis where you got it wrong (though the question itself is wrong), but anyway. >You had 800>You bought the cow>You have no cash now>You sold the cow>You have 1000>You don't have 1200>You only have 1000>Your profit of 200 is part of that 1000>You can't add half of it (100) to the 1000 and leave half over (net 100)>If you do (and you did) you just ignored that 200 of that 1000 is your actual profit, and you replace it with the 100 left over instead >You're now only 100 in profit instead of the accurate 200>You're 100 short (read: wrong) in your calculation at this point>This is why your answer is 300 instead of "correct" 400.Now if you read my previous reply here, you'll get why the question itself is wrong:>>522743209
>>522745316Yes because it doesn't matter. If you start with 800 and end with 1300 you made 500 profit.
>>522745452there's nothing wrong with the question.
