To understand how currency exchange works, think of any retail store that trades a product to you as an individual. The business buys wares from a provider known as wholesaler at a purchase price, to which it sums up a profit margin.

The difference between the final price at which the consumer buys in that store (eg your colons from Costa Rica) and what it cost the business to get those colons from Costa Rica is the benefit it obtains in that currency exchange.

Nevertheless there is a distinction in currency exchange with other businesses. On balance, foreign currency notes (colons from Costa Rica in this case) rotate from hand to hand, that is, they are not consumed.
