The 80th-99th percentile would incur a small cost (0-0.1% increase in average federal tax rate) while the top 1% would incur a 0.2% increase.

The actual solution to this riddle is to add correctly (correct time, correct person and correct location) from the bank point of view which in this case seems to be the problem: First day: $30 in the bank + $20 owner already withdrew = $50. Second day: $15 in the bank + ($15 + $20 owner already withdrew) = $50.
