Here's a trick story but the logic looks correct!
Lets say I want to buy a basketball which costs A$20 but I have no cash.
So I borrow A$5 from Stef.
Borrow another A$5 from Mike.
Borrow another A$5 from Adam.
Borrow another A$5 from Jac.
That makes up A$5*4=A$20
I went to the shop to buy the basketball and find out that it only costs A$15 which is a discounted price. That leaves me with an extra A$5 from the A$20 I borrowed earlier.
With the extra A$5, I returned Stef A$1, Mike A$1, Adam A$1 and Jac A$1. That leaves me with an extra A$1 which I kept for myself.
So far clear?
Now I owe Stef, Mike, Adam and Jac A$4 each, which means I owe them A$4*4=A$16. Adding up with A$4 which I returned them and A$1 which I kept for myself, the new total is A$21! Which means that, I make a net profit of A$1! Quite impossible, isn't it?
