A logic question for you (math related).. straightforward

John buys a set of speakers for $20 from a garage sale. Realizing that the speakers were not exactly what he wanted, he resells the speakers to Mike for $10. John has known Mike for a long time, and has developed some trust with him. Mike tells John that he does not have the money at the moment but will pay him the $10 at a later date, but he needs the speakers right now. John lets him take the speakers. Mike however never pays the $10 owed.

How much did John lose in these transactions?
