No... these are the actual transactions that took place in chronological order:
Buyer => Seller: $0 (fake money)
Seller => Neighbour: $0 (fake money)
Neighbour => Seller: $25 (seller +25)
Seller => Buyer: $15 + cap (seller -15, seller -cap)
Seller => Neighbour: $25 (seller -25)
Summarized:
0 + 25 - 15 - x - 25 = -15 - x
(where 0 represents the original position and x is the cap)
