— Year-by-year cumulative cash out
Sale is Y1-heavy — you buy the pool upfront. Y2-Y3 you only pay platform fee + replace occasional losses. By Y3 the total is well below cardboard. This is what your CFO wants to see.
| Cumulative cost | End Y1 | End Y2 | End Y3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cardboard baseline | €11,250 | €22,500 | €33,750 |
| Packio Leased | €10,000 | €20,000 | €30,000 |
| Packio Sale | €12,788 | €16,638 | €20,488 |
◆ Sale Y1 is capex-heavy — buying the pool upfront (~62% of 3-year Sale cost lands in Y1). Leased spreads evenly. Cardboard is a recurring cost with no residual value.
