Bessy has 8 times as much money as Bob, but when each earns $4, Bessy will have 4 times as much money as Bob. How much does each have before and after earning the $4?

Bessy has 32 dollars and Bob has 4 dollars before "Bob" earns 4 dollars and then Bessy has 32 dollars and Bob has 8 dollars after Bob gets 4 dollars.
