The Commitment Audit Checklist
A photocopier leased in good faith while its owner was on holiday sat in storage for two years after the business that needed it had already closed. It was eventually sold to a church for £10, against an £18,600 lease. That is the exact cost of a long-term commitment to something that only ever loses value.
This worksheet runs every standing commitment in your business, rent, equipment, subscriptions, leases, through a simple three-question test: does it appreciate or depreciate, could you walk away from it this month, and is it actually earning its place.
What's inside
| Section | What it does |
|---|---|
| List every commitment | Everything you're currently paying for on an ongoing basis, named honestly, or removed if it's already gone. |
| The three-question test | Whether it appreciates or depreciates, whether it's genuinely needed, and what it costs to hold. |
| The freedom gauge | A single score for how much of your business is committed versus how much is still flexible. |
