Question 145

Mr. Suresh went into a restaurant and had a happy lunch for Rs.162. He paid for the same using a 500 rupee note. He was so happy with the meal and hence purchased a mini snack box for Rs. 37 and paid for the same using a 100 rupee note. Mr. Suresh ensured that he collected the balance from the cashier in both cases. Although he was satisfied with the service, he did not pay any tips to the server. The next day when the cashier went and deposited the money in the bank, it was found by the banker that only the two currency notes which were given by Mr. Suresh were counterfeit notes. As per policy, the bank immediately tore both the notes using their shredding machine. What is the total loss to the restaurant in this transaction ?
