I would assume that he didn't have a previous balance at the store, so 89.08 is the price of the 4 shirts he just bought.
OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):
Does that sound reasonable to you?

That is the price of each shirt.
OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):
So, what would his balance be if he bought 1 shirt?
OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):
But didn't pay for it yet.
