Recovery bridge

Retail value is not recoverable revenue

Fair Value establishes the comparable retail basis. Expected Resale Revenue estimates what a wholesale liquidator can recover from eligible items using Liquidata’s category and condition recovery rates. It is not guaranteed revenue or net profit.

Decision to make

How much supported value can the category and condition mix recover?

EVIDENCE PATH

Move from Fair Value to a supported Expected Resale scenario

Recovery applies only where category, condition, and coverage support it.

  1. 01

    Establish supported Fair Value

    Begin with researched comparable value and the line-item coverage required for the calculation.

  2. 02

    Apply category and condition recovery

    Use the approved recovery schedule on eligible Fair Value for supported items.

  3. 03

    Compare recovery with cost

    Subtract acquisition cost from Expected Resale Revenue to calculate Estimated gross spread before operating costs.

DECISION OUTPUT

Measure recovery without treating retail as cash

Expected Resale Revenue

See a wholesale-liquidator estimate based on supported category and condition evidence instead of treating retail as cash.

Estimated gross spread

Compare Expected Resale Revenue with acquisition cost before freight, labor, storage, fees, taxes, damage, and sell-through timing.

Eligibility discipline

Withhold the metric when required coverage or category support is absent.

Price the recovery on a load you are watching.

Questions

Questions to settle before you use this decision

How is Expected Resale Revenue calculated?

Liquidata applies approved category and condition recovery rates to eligible Fair Value for supported items, then sums the wholesale-liquidator estimate across the load.

What is Estimated gross spread?

It is Expected Resale Revenue minus acquisition cost, before freight, labor, storage, fees, taxes, damage, and sell-through timing.

Why might resale recovery be unavailable?

Liquidata withholds the metric when required line-item coverage, Fair Value coverage, category lineage, or minimum sample support is missing.
