The easiest way to solve this problem is to ignore the Duplicate Note until the end. Instead, assume the shopkeeper's neighbor comes back the next day to make change himself. Only after making change does the shopkeeper notice the Duplicate Note.
- Customer gives shopkeeper 1000rs note. Shopkeeper is +1000.
- Shopkeeper gives neighbor 100rs note. Receives 1000rs change. Shopkeeper is +1000.
- Shopkeeper gives customer 800rs + 200rs in goods. Shopkeeper is 0.
- Neighbor comes and asks for change for 1000rs note. Hands shopkeeper same note. Shopkeeper gives change. Shopkeeper is 0.
- Shopkeeper notices note is counterfeit. Fake 1000rs is worth nothing. Shopkeeper is -1000.
Rs.1000 Loss
sir my assumption is 1200 loss shop keeper has to give the neighbour 1000 + he had given Rs 200 worth of goods for free ?? am i rite
1000rs+800rs+200 goods=2000 los, i remember that the same question some where posted in CCI but cant recolect the answer . but
