# DenQAI: succession offer normalizer

File-specific companion · 2026-09-10

## Purpose

Have succession offers been recorded on the same cash, timing, contingency, and obligation basis?

**Who:** Seller and independent transaction analyst

**Records:** Coded offers; cash and debt terms; closing-cost estimates; contingent payments; employment; terminal value and guarantee details.

## Complete the file

1. Use one option_id per path and explicitly set included.
2. Enter closing cash and deductions separately from seller notes, holdbacks, earnouts, and rollover equity with their timing assumptions.
3. Keep clinical compensation separate from ownership cash; enter terminal_proceeds_after_tax_before_disposition_cost and terminal_disposition_cost separately using the current workbook’s definitions.
4. Record controlling_evidence and the break_condition before comparing options.

## Definitions

- **Seller note face:** Stated principal amount of seller financing before timing or collectability assumptions.
- **Rollover equity face:** Entered value of retained ownership, not cash received at closing.
- **Terminal disposition cost:** Entered cost of realizing the terminal value, kept separate from terminal proceeds after tax and before that cost.

## Fictional example

Fictional example: Private Sale A records cash_at_close 700000 and seller_note_face 100000. A later terminal scenario enters 300000 after tax before disposition cost and 20000 disposition cost in separate fields.

## Review and next action

Use the current succession workbook for reviewed calculations and resolve ambiguous raw fields first.

This raw CSV contains inputs, not formulas. Match probability and timing conventions to the current guided model; a probability assumption is not evidence of collectible value. Version 2026.09.1 separates terminal proceeds and disposition cost.

## AI coach prompt

Help me use DenQAI’s succession offer normalizer. My question is: Have succession offers been recorded on the same cash, timing, contingency, and obligation basis? Explain these terms in plain language: Seller note face, Rollover equity face, Terminal disposition cost. Ask one question at a time about the required records: Coded offers; cash and debt terms; closing-cost estimates; contingent payments; employment; terminal value and guarantee details. Walk through the supplied fictional example before asking me for inputs. Treat every missing value as unknown, not zero. Do not invent source records, contract terms, legal conclusions, or clinical facts. Use only permitted fictional or aggregate, non-identifying information. Follow this boundary: This raw CSV contains inputs, not formulas. Match probability and timing conventions to the current guided model; a probability assumption is not evidence of collectible value. Version 2026.09.1 separates terminal proceeds and disposition cost. End with the missing evidence and this next step: Use the current succession workbook for reviewed calculations and resolve ambiguous raw fields first.

Check each required field and period, units, evidence locator, assumptions, arithmetic where formulas are actually supplied, and unresolved contradictions. Check the sequence: Use one option_id per path and explicitly set included. Enter closing cash and deductions separately from seller notes, holdbacks, earnouts, and rollover equity with their timing assumptions. Keep clinical compensation separate from ownership cash; enter terminal_proceeds_after_tax_before_disposition_cost and terminal_disposition_cost separately using the current workbook’s definitions. Record controlling_evidence and the break_condition before comparing options. Separate facts from assumptions and missing records. Do not supply unsupported numbers or make a professional decision for me. Apply this limitation: This raw CSV contains inputs, not formulas.
