What These Numbers Mean

  • Total equipment value is what it would cost to replace everything from scratch. This is the number your insurance needs to know.
  • Annual replacement budget is based on a 4-year refresh cycle. Most laptops last 3-5 years, so dividing by 4 gives you a sustainable annual budget. Read more in our laptop refresh cycle guide.
  • Cost of one lost laptop is a reminder that a single unreturned device after offboarding is a real expense. See our article on the $2,000 offboarding problem.
  • Untracked equipment risk is based on industry data showing that 30% of small businesses can't fully account for their equipment. If that applies to you, the risk number is what's at stake.
