Question

A long time ago, an acquaintance paid for my trip with his Rav-Kav, which cost 38.50 NIS, with the money loaded on the Rav-Kav multiplied by 1.25 (so the actual price is 30.80 NIS). Since then, the fare for that trip has changed, and the price is 27 NIS with stored value (multiplied by 1.25), so the actual price is 21.60. How much should I return to that person for the trip?

Answer

Hello,

You need to pay him the amount he loaded for your trip, which is 30.80 NIS.

The debt is money, not the trip, so it doesn't matter how much this trip costs now.
