BRAIN TEASER: A lady bought goods worth ₦200 and paid the shopkeeper with a ₦1000 Note. The Shopkeeper had no change on him so he went to John his neighbour and collected ₦1000 change in ₦200 denominations, with which he settled the lady and she left. A little while later John came back angrily after he discovered the ₦1000 note he was given by the shopkeeper was fake, and demanded a replacement. To avoid trouble, the shopkeeper had to give John another ₦1000 and destroy the counterfeit which had no real value. Question for geniuses: how much has the Shopkeeper lost in total?
