One accelerator: sell-now versus short-cascade scenario inputs

Sell net $10k; cascade $3k + later net $8k − $2kmodeled

Value kindmodeled — Interpret this value according to its displayed kind, scope, source, and as-of date.
ScopeExact $1k teaching increments over three months; not bids. $8–12k assumed downside receipts are below the allocated per-GPU installed cost in Chapter 1.8; $3k contribution fits below its $4.3–8.6k fully paid 90-day gross-rental screen. $2k execution cost stresses a 20% share of the sale receipt. Zero incremental tax, financing and discounting isolate disposition; qualification and custody remain prerequisites.

SourceGuide assumptions, September 8, 2026, bounded by Chapter 1.8 installed-node and rental sensitivity and Chapter 14.9 execution-cost categories. NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2 supplies sanitization assurance, not prices.
DerivationCascade net = $3k + $8k − $2k = $9k versus $10k sell-now. Cascade contribution must exceed $4k over the same horizon to reverse the ranking. Both sale values are conditional on completed custody and sanitization validation.
