-# CORPUS-0003
-## Arithmetic Resolves The Venture
-### Status: Training Corpus Seed
-### Layer: Layer_1--Worked_Examples
-### Purpose: Teach that arithmetic is not rumor, posture, or expectation; once the values are known, arithmetic records the outcome
-### Repository Path: docs/training/corpus/Layer_1--Worked_Examples/CORPUS-0003-arithmetic-resolves-the-venture.md

-## 0. Scenario
-
-A trader sends oil from Ostia to Capua.
-
-Before settlement, many things are uncertain:
-
-- final sale price
-- total cost
-- delay
-- damage
-- buyer reliability
-- rival action
-- future opportunity
-
-The trader may act because he believes one of these numbers will improve.
-
-But once the venture settles, arithmetic resolves the outcome.
-
----
-
-## 1. Known Final Values
-
-| Item | Value |
-|---|---:|
-| Sale value in Capua | 18 asses |
-| Purchase price in Ostia | 10 asses |
-| Porterage and handling | 2 asses |
-| Cart share | 3 asses |
-| Storage | 1 as |
-| Capua handling | 1 as |
-
-Total cost:
-
-```text
-10 + 2 + 3 + 1 + 1 = 17 asses
-```
-
-Final result:
-
-```text
-18 - 17 = 1 as profit
-```
-
-The trader may boast, complain, or explain.
-
-The arithmetic remains 1 as profit.
-
----
-
-## 2. Actor Belief Before Settlement
-
-Before settlement, the trader may believe:
-
-- the Capua price will rise
-- the cart will arrive early
-- a buyer will pay above market
-- rival cargo will be delayed
-- the sale will create future trust
-- small profit is acceptable because of future access
-
-These beliefs may justify the venture.
-
-They do not change the final arithmetic after settlement.
-
----
-
-## 3. Posture Does Not Change The Account
-
-A trader may present the venture differently to different audiences.
-
-To a creditor, he may call it a success.
-
-To a rival, he may conceal the margin.
-
-To a partner, he may emphasize future benefit.
-
-To himself, he may call it a necessary first step.
-
-But the account still records:
-
-```text
-sale value - total cost = outcome
-```
-
----
-
-## 4. When A Loss Is Rational
-
-A trader may knowingly accept an immediate loss.
-
-Example:
-
-| Item | Value |
-|---|---:|
-| Sale value | 16 asses |
-| Total cost | 17 asses |
-| Result | 1 as loss |
-
-This may still be rational if it creates:
-
-- a trusted buyer
-- future credit
-- route knowledge
-- warehouse access
-- reputation for reliability
-- a later profitable venture
-
-But the immediate venture is still a loss.
-
-A rational loss is not a hidden profit.
-
-It is a loss accepted for another reason.
-
----
-
-## 5. Incorrect Model Behavior
-
-The model should not:
-
-- let confidence override arithmetic
-- treat expected future gain as present profit
-- treat reputation benefit as coin profit
-- allow posture to change the account
-- ignore costs because the actor claims success
-- call a loss profitable because it may lead to something later
-
-Future benefit may matter.
-
-It must be tracked separately from immediate arithmetic outcome.
-
----
-
-## 6. Correct Model Behavior
-
-The model should separate:
-
-| Category | Meaning |
-|---|---|
-| expected outcome | what actor believes before settlement |
-| final arithmetic outcome | sale value minus total cost after settlement |
-| strategic value | non-coin or future benefit from the venture |
-| posture | how actor presents the result to others |
-
-These may differ.
-
-Only the final arithmetic outcome determines immediate profit or loss.

-## 7. Layer-0 Concepts Used
-
-This example uses:
-
-- `CORPUS-0004-cost-includes-more-than-purchase-price`
-- `CORPUS-0005-profit-is-sale-minus-total-cost`
-- `CORPUS-0006-delay-is-economic-cost`
-- `CORPUS-0010-credit-depends-on-trust`
-- `CORPUS-0012-every-venture-risks-loss`
-- `CORPUS-0020-posture-changes-by-audience`
-

-
-## 8. Success Condition
-
-If the model stops allowing belief, posture, or future hope to rewrite the settled account, and starts recording arithmetic outcome separately from strategic interpretation, this file is functioning correctly.
