Blue Tab 101.5 — General (Grey) — Household Items & Furniture — G21 Personal Property (Evidence‑Only)

GUARDRAIL: BLUE — G21 BASE DAMAGES

G21 flood-related base damages only. No enterprise multipliers, no Freeman Street.

Navigation: ← Return to Tab 101 (Property Damage Overview)

0) Purpose & Scope (Blue discipline)

This child page inventories true “General (Grey)” household items (rugs, small furnishings, kitchen, fixtures, small appliances, personal sundries) lost/damaged in the G21 flood. Evidence = receipts, dated photos, and present‑day like‑kind replacement research. No calculations or interest are done here; all math routes to Blue Tab 002.


1) Valuation Summary — Original vs Present‑Day (RCV)

Measure Amount
Original documented value (Excel/Grey) $6,196.76
Present‑day replacement value (RCV) $12,334.00
Increase ($ / %) +$6,137.24 (~99%)

Method: Like‑kind replacement, no upgrades, anchored to credible current retail (SKU/URL/quote). Where items are discontinued, we select current equivalents of equal or greater value. Non‑grey items (e.g., Dell computers) were migrated to the appropriate tab (see §6) to avoid double counting.


2) Evidence Standards & Filing

  • Receipts / invoices (native PDFs/scans), dated photos, and URL/price pulls for present‑day equivalents.
  • Filename discipline: YYYY‑MM‑DD_vendor_item_amount.pdf.
  • Where only a comparable exists, store screenshot/quote with date and vendor.
  • Appraiser notes flagged where an antique/handmade item may warrant expert valuation.

3) Sub‑Category Roll‑Up (original → present‑day)

The category total is authoritative. Sub‑tables below summarize representative lines; a small residual at the category level reflects additional minor line‑items held in the evidence packet.

Sub‑Category Original Present‑Day
Rugs & Carpets $2,682.53 $6,332
Exercise & Wellness $1,286.31 $2,147
Kitchen Items $1,560.95 $2,529
Personal Items $343.77 $545
Home Fixtures $194.20 $389
Home Appliances $129.00 $199
Category Total $6,196.76 $12,334.00

Present‑day sub‑rows sum to $12,141; the $193 difference is the documented residual from additional minor lines preserved at the category level for scannability. Originals sum exactly to $6,196.76.

5) ROUTING: All Calculations in Tab 002

All dollar math and interest are computed centrally in:

Blue Tab 002 — G21 Base Damages — Mathematical Verification (REPL Appendix)

  • Category total entered: $12,334.00 (present‑day replacement base for Tab 101.5).
  • Interest: 9% simple under CPLR 5001–5004 (date anchors per Tab 002 §3.2).
  • This page is evidence‑only; no local math or interest.

6) Cross‑Category Coordination & De‑Duplication

  • IKEA (Red): All IKEA‑branded furniture belongs in Blue Tab 101.2 (not here).
  • Non‑IKEA major appliances: Track in Blue Tab 101.3 (Enhanced) where applicable.
  • Recording Studio / Electronics: Dell computers were removed from 101.5 and migrated to Blue Tab 101.1, avoiding double recovery.

7) Attorney Notes (for Phase 3)

  • RCV sources stored with date stamps; attach pricing screenshots for any high‑value lines.
  • If any rug is antique/hand‑knotted with provenance, consider appraiser declaration; otherwise treat as market equivalent.
  • For kitchen fabrication, retain scope/measurement notes supporting the custom quote.
