Britain passed the Intolerable Acts, which heavily restricted Massachusetts's self governing abilities after the Boston Tea Party. There was no financial transaction that took place to pay back the tea.

The Boston Tea Party was when a bunch of colonial people dumped a load of British tea into the harbor because they didn't want to pay taxes...
He demanded the tea be unloaded and that the people pay the taxes on the tea.
No,but the colonist had to pay for the tea they dumped
No, they didn't.
British were taxing a lot on tea. Boston people had to pay more than the Boston. They thought that wasn't fair so the got revenge. Boston people dressed liked Indians, and they threw the tea off the boat.
this happened because king George had placed the tea act .some people were asleep during the Boston tea party . The Boston tea party was named after what happened . Patriots dressed as Mohawk Indians , went into ships ,got the tea and dumped it into the sea .After this King George got mad so the patriots had to pay for all of the tea they had dumped.
The Boston Tea Party was actually not a war. Here is what it was, and what happened. The Tea Act passed. The colonists did not want to pay taxes. So, here is where the Boston Tea Party kicks in, one year after the Tea Act. Here is what you've been waiting for! The Boston Tea Party was an event that was three boats full of colonists. They cut open chests of tea and they dumped it in the Boston Harbor (harr-berr)! The colonists had to pay it off. So, the colonists named that law the Intolerable(in-toll-err-a-bowl) Act. So, the Boston Tea Party was not a war, but it was an event that the colonists responded to the Tea Act.
The people just moaned. But an armed gang, probably in the pay of John Hancock, crept aboard ships of the British East India Company in Boston harbour and damaged 2 million dollars worth of tea. This criminal event was laughed off as the Boston Tea Party.
Gage blocaded Boston, allowing nothing to get in or out. He also forced the colonists to pay for the tea.
Britain needed Boston to pay. The British lost lots of tea in the Boston Tea Party. It was a way to collect money and make Boston pay for the loses.
