100

In the end, all the store is really losing is 70 of goods and 30 cash

Same result if he walked in, grabbed the merch and 30 from the register and left

Till total is the same

Scenario 1
500 in the register
Steals 100
400 left
"Buys" 70
100 back in and temp total is 500
30 change
End up with 470

Scenario 2
500 in the register
Guy walks in, take 70 of product
500 still in the register
Takes 30 out
470 in the register

Thief ends up with 70 in product and 30 in cash. Store lost 70 in product and 30 in cash
