Expression for transaction where there is no change or advantage and the expression for a transaction where there is no change or advantage was used or where the acquisition was made was not made.
I’m looking for an expression to describe a situation where there was a transaction where some kind of advantage was expected but in the end there was no actual change or advantage.
I was trying to describe a scenario where one owns a business, say a pawnshop, that involves multiple complicated transactions, but for various reasons, in the end of the month she finds out all her trades resulted neither in profit nor loss.
I’ve considered status quo ante, but I see that expression mostly applied to situations where a change was attempted on a situation, and not for transactions between two parties where a trade of some sort is attempted.
There’s also five of one half a dozen of the other, but I understand that as a comparison of two things that are identical, but not outcomes of situations.

0-sim game is a concept in game theory representing a closed system, of an ideal competitive environment, where the gains of one party equals the loss of the other. Why are Nash equilibrium (nash equilibrium) so important?
To us, mere muggles, we malapropize the mathematical concept by saying zero-sum gain to jeer people close to us who go about pointless investing much time and effort but in the end not gaining any profit (nor incurring loss).
Why do some non-Christians disagree with Ecclesiastes’ statement that Human Life is a zero-sum-gain and not a complete zero-sum-gain? What is useless?
I believe that Ecclesiastes was referring to a zero-sum game. The difference is that it is a no-gap philosophy. Is it true that the author of Ecclesiastes, presumably King Solomon, was actually writing a mathematical theses on game theory in the language of his day? I don’t think many people like my theory. I don’t think many
people like my theory on his theory.
