Executive guide · CFO
A finance framework for residual value, lease exposure, working capital, recovery variance, customer payout, provider contribution, and settlement timing.
Without a preserved baseline, settlement can only explain the final number, not why it changed.
Return, extend, buyout, repair, replace, redeploy, sell, and recycle can produce different economic consequences for the same physical asset.
A route with slightly higher recovery may be economically worse if it creates long processing or payment cycles.
The final financial close should explain what changed and whether the original decision was reasonable given the evidence available at the time.
Preserve valuation, payout logic, cost assumptions, reserve, and authority.
Attribute logistics, processing, repair, storage, and exception costs as they occur.
Connect buyer, reuse, lease, or recycling outcome to realized recovery.
Reconcile customer payout, provider contribution, reserve, and timing with visible causes.
Use these as diligence prompts, RFP tests, design-review questions, or executive-briefing anchors.
External sources are references, not claims of certification or automatic compliance. Internal references point to the product, methodology, and proof architecture behind the guide.
Defines the public-site boundary for modeled economics and the difference between assumptions and realized outcomes.
Connects the finance questions in this guide to the public product narrative.
ITAD Lens is easiest to evaluate against a real disposition decision your organization already owns.
