 # CORPUS-0010
 ## Hard Stop After Loss
 ### Status: Training Corpus Seed
 ### Layer: Layer_1--Worked_Examples
 ### Purpose: Teach that a venture loss can remove the trader's ability to continue acting by exhausting liquidity, trust, transport access, or settlement capacity
 ### Repository Path: docs/training/corpus/Layer_1--Worked_Examples/CORPUS-0010-hard-stop-after-loss.md

 ## 0. Scenario
 A trader in Ostia sends oil to Capua.
 The venture fails.
 The failure is not only a negative number in the account.
 The loss leaves the trader unable to begin the next venture because his usable capacity has fallen below the minimum required to act.
 This is a hard stop.
 ---
 ## 1. Starting Condition
 | Item | Value |
 |---|---:|
 | Coin stock before venture | 20 asses |
 | Oil purchase price | 10 asses |
 | Movement and handling cost | 6 asses |
 | Reserve coin after dispatch | 4 asses |
 | Minimum coin needed for next small venture | 8 asses |
 The trader begins with enough coin to attempt the venture.
 He does not have much room for failure.
 ---
 ## 2. Expected Outcome
 The trader expects to sell the oil in Capua for 22 asses.
 Expected total cost:
 ```text
 10 + 6 = 16 asses
 ```
 Expected profit:
 ```text
 22 - 16 = 6 asses profit
 ```
 If successful, coin stock after settlement would increase.
 ---
 ## 3. Failed Outcome
 The oil sells for only 12 asses because a rival shipment arrived first.
 Actual result:
 ```text
 sale value = 12 asses
 total cost = 16 asses
 loss = 4 asses
 ```
 Coin position after settlement:
 ```text
 starting coin: 20 asses
 venture cost: -16 asses
 sale return:  +12 asses
 ------------------------
 ending coin:   16 asses
 ```
 The trader still has coin.
 But the hard stop may come from obligations and access, not coin alone.
 ---
 ## 4. Hidden Settlement Problem
 The trader had promised payment to the cart driver after sale.
 | Obligation | Value |
 |---|---:|
 | Cart payment still due | 6 asses |
 | Warehouse fee due | 2 asses |
 | Personal subsistence reserve needed | 4 asses |
 Usable coin after required payments:
 ```text
 ending coin:             16 asses
 cart payment due:        -6 asses
 warehouse fee due:       -2 asses
 subsistence reserve:     -4 asses
 ---------------------------------
 usable venture coin:      4 asses
 ```
 The next small venture requires 8 asses.
 The trader has only 4 usable asses.
 The system stops him from launching the next venture unless he finds credit, sells assets, reduces costs, or accepts a smaller action.
 ---
 ## 5. Trust Hard Stop Variant
 Even if coin remains, trust may fail.
 If the trader delays payment to the cart driver:
 - the cart driver may refuse future service
 - other drivers may hear of late payment
 - transport costs may rise
 - credit may tighten
 - the trader may lose timing advantage
 The hard stop may be:
 ```text
 transport_access = unavailable
 ```
 not merely:
 ```text
 coin_stock = low
 ```
 ---
 ## 6. Access Hard Stop Variant
 If the failed venture damages reputation with the Capua buyer:
 - future buyer access declines
 - seller confidence declines
 - deferred payment becomes unavailable
 - the same route becomes less viable
 The trader may still have coin, but fewer people will transact with him.
 ---
 ## 7. Correct Model Behavior
 The model should separate:
 | Category | Meaning |
 |---|---|
 | arithmetic loss | sale value minus total cost |
 | remaining coin | coin after settlement |
 | usable coin | coin after obligations and reserves |
 | trust condition | whether partners still transact |
 | access condition | whether route and market remain open |
 | next action threshold | minimum needed to continue |
 Failure should be evaluated by whether the actor can still act.
 ---
 ## 8. Incorrect Model Behavior
 The model should not:
 - treat all losses as equal
 - stop analysis at the arithmetic loss
 - assume remaining coin is fully usable
 - ignore unpaid obligations
 - ignore trust damage
 - ignore minimum venture thresholds
 - assume the next venture is still available
 - treat failure as only a score reduction
 ---
 ## 9. Recovery Paths
 A hard stop may be recoverable through:
 - smaller venture
 - non-coin settlement
 - credit
 - asset sale
 - favor from contact
 - cost reduction
 - delayed action
 - accepting a lower-status opportunity
 Recovery is not automatic.
 The model should identify what capacity is missing.

 ## 10. 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-0009-liquidity-differs-from-wealth`
 - `CORPUS-0010-credit-depends-on-trust`
 - `CORPUS-0012-every-venture-risks-loss`
 - `CORPUS-0019-success-has-no-boundary-failure-has-a-hard-stop`

 ## 11. Success Condition
 If the model sees a venture loss and asks whether liquidity, trust, access, or minimum action capacity has fallen below the threshold needed to continue, this file is functioning correctly.
