Started off with 34,520 bottles

234 bottles were lost: 34, 520 - 234 = 34, 286 bottles

20,292 bottles were sold: 34,286 - 20,292 = 13, 994 bottles

Made 10,920 bottles: 13,994 + 10,920 = 24, 914 bottles

1029 bottles were lost: 24,914 - 1029 = 23,885 bottles

2039 bottles were sold: 23,885-2039 = 21, 846 bottles

1029 bottles were stolen: 21,846 - 1029 = 20,817

There are 20,817 bottles left.
