A man decides to buy a nice horse. He pays $600 for it, and he is very content with this strong animal. After a year, the value of the horse has increased to $700 and he decides to sell the horse. But already a few days later he regrets his decision to sell the beautiful horse, and he buys it again. Unfortunately he has to pay $800 to get it back, so he loses $100. After another year of owning the horse, he finally decides to sell the horse for $900. What is the overall profit the man makes?

speaking from numbers .. he made $200 ...buys for 600+800=1400 sells.....700+900=1600
1600-1400=200....but ultimately the man probably lost money because he had to feed the horse and lodge the horse..

1. -$500
he origianally bought it for 600, so his profit was -600, then when he sold it it increased to -500, it then went back to -600 after he bought it again for an extra 100, then after he sold it it went to -500
