A lady walks in the store and steals $100 dollars from the register. She comes back five miutes later and buys $70 dollars worth of merchandise with the $100 dollars she stole earlier. The owner gives her $30 dollars in change, how much did the owner lose?

I think it would be $100 that she lost because the person used $70 of it and the owner had to give change from the $100 so nothing was being added on. Do you have answer choices by chance?
