Wat Happened To The Dollar? Riddle

Three friends check into a hotel for the night and the clerk tells them the bill is $30 payable in advance. So they each pay the clerk $10 and go to their room. A few minutes later the clerk realizes he has made an error and overcharged the three by $5. He asks the bellhop to return $5 to the three friends who had just checked in. The bellhop sees this as an opportunity to make $2 as he reasons that the three friends would have a tough time dividing $5 evenly among them; so he decides to tell them that the clerk made a mistake of only $3 giving a dollar back to each of the friends. He pockets the leftover $2 and goes home for the day! Now each of the three friends gets a dollar back thus they each paid $9 for the room which is a total of $27 for the night. We know the bellhop pocketed $2 and adding that to the $27 you get $29 not $30 which was originally spent. Where did the other dollar go????
