The insuarance company was forced of to write off $30,000 loss accordingly.
What portion of the $30,000 was respectively pocketed by
the thief,
the jeweler,
the lawyer, and
the clerk?

Answer 1

the thief had 15,000 from the robbery--he does not share in the insurance payment.....the lawyer gets nothing the jeweler already paid him 10,000. the clerk gets the 5000 and the jewler gets the balance 25000. since the jeweler paid the lawyer 10,000 he clears 15,000---five g's more than waht was stolen.
