τὴν τράπεζαν The bank alone is mentioned, but it must not be forgotten that Phormion had a lease of the shield-manufactory as well.
ὀγδοήκοντα μνᾶς The share of Apollodorus, eighty minae, is half the annual rent of the wholebusiness, the shield-manu factory and the bank. Consistently with this, the whole rent, as stated in § 51, Or. 45 § 32, is 2 talents and 40mna. (i.e. 160mna.) per annum. Of this (as appears from § 11) one talent was paid for the shield-mannfactory, and one talent and 40mna. for the bank.
Εὐφραίῳ In Or. 49 πρὸς Τιμόθεον § 44, Phormion and Euphraeus are mentioned by Apollodorus, as having paid from Pasion's bank certain sums of money to persons named by Timotheus. Like Phormion, Euphraeus had risen from a subordinate position, to be one of the lessees of the bank. Cf. § 14 ἐλευθέρους ἀφεῖσαν, n.
τάλαντον This is the rent of the shield-manufactory alone, as appears from § 11 τὸ (ἀσπιδοπηγεῖον) τἀλαντον ἔφερεν. It is this rent alone that is here referred to. Xenon and his partners paid a total sum of 2tal. 40mna. for the whole business. consisting of the manufactory and the bank. The rent of the manufactory (1tal.) belonged to Apollodorus, that of the bank to Pasicles (1tal. 40mna.). The rent thus paid for the whole business was the same as that which had been paid by Phormion (τοῦ ἴσου ἀργυρίου, § 12). It is from not understanding this, that Voemel was led to conjecture τάλαντον καὶ δισχιλίας, i.e. 1tal. 20mna. = 80mna. = the sum paid by Phormion to Apollodorus. But it was only the total rent that was the same in both cases; the way in which it was divided between the brothers was different.
