Companion to EMA-MEMO-SPRINT-004 (Deal Life Cycle Memo) and the Statement of Account. Figures are grouped by confidence level — confirmed paid, deferred/contingent, Emanay-absorbed, and disputed/unreconciled — and should not be combined across groups without review.

This is the complete expense record assembled from email, Fathom/Gemini/Otter meeting notes, and the Dani ↔ Alex WhatsApp thread. Nothing here has been rounded up or combined to inflate a total — where a figure is disputed or unconfirmed, it stays in its own column and is not added to what's actually owed.

Source: Stripe invoice export, customer cus_Ty2MNjq6XFKA8p. Covers Feb 12, 2026 – Aug 14, 2026 only — this export does not go back to 2025, so it cannot confirm or refute anything from the CapForge/feasibility/valuation period.

Total Confirmed Paid (Feb–Aug 2026)$25,641.76
Cross-check against the official invoice: ASN-2026-001 (issued Jun 1, 2026) states Cash Paid of $15,000.00 as of that date, covering the Feb 12 kickoff fee ($7,500) and the May 11 QoE payment ($7,500) — that's $15,000 exactly. The Stripe total above ($25,641.76) also includes everything paid *after* the invoice's Jun 1 issue date (the Jun 8 dispute resolution, QuickBooks charges, and the two retainer payments), which is why it's higher — the two figures aren't in conflict, they just cover different points in time.
All three prior open items below are now resolved:
1. The $130.80 gap between the $4,500 verbally agreed and the $4,630.80 actually charged is processing fees — not a billing error.
2. The Jul 2 and Jul 30, 2026 $2,315.55 charges cover two different periods — not a duplicate.
3. The QoE work totaled $15,000: $7,500 paid upfront (May 11, 2026) and $7,500 correctly deferred to closing per Invoice ASN-2026-001. This is not a double-count — see Section 03.

Total Confirmed Paid to CapForge$29,630.00

Fully documented via Stripe receipts. This reconciles two previously-disputed figures in Section 06: Dani's Jul 14, 2025 reference to having "invested 25k on report" (the Apr 8, 2025 payment, ~3 months prior) and his Sep 25, 2025 statement "we paid them 30k" ($4,630 + $25,000 = $29,630).

Deferred to Closing (Contractually Pending)

Source: the official ASN-2026-001 Client Report & Invoice PDF (issued Jun 1, 2026), read directly rather than reconstructed from chat/email references. Account Totals per this document: Billed $38,500.00 · Cash Paid $15,000.00 · Credits/Deferred to Closing $16,750.00 · Balance Due $6,750.00.

Total Deferred to Closing (verified against line items)$16,750.00
The official invoice contains its own internal math error, independent of anything on Emanay's or Dani's side of the relationship. Its own "Total Credit Extended — Deferred to Closing" summary box states the total as $14,000.00 (itemized there as $7,500 QoE + $4,500 accounting credit [4 months, not 6] + $2,000 historical-cleanup goodwill [not the full $2,500]). That sub-total does not match the $16,750.00 figure in the Account Totals row, which is correct when verified against every individual line item. The $2,750 gap comes from the summary box undercounting by two months of accounting credit ($2,250) and using $2,000 instead of $2,500 for the historical cleanup ($500). Use $16,750.00 — it's the number that actually reconciles.

This also confirms the QoE double-count concern raised in an earlier draft of this memo was not an error — the invoice's own line item explicitly shows "$15,000.00 billed · $7,500.00 paid · $7,500.00 credit applied," exactly matching the two-payment structure already documented elsewhere.

No payment confirmation located for either installment. Not in the Stripe export (which starts Feb 2026) or the CapForge receipts.

This is a fully documented, formal proposal — scope, fee structure, and deliverables are all confirmed — but payment status is the one thing that remains unverified. Do not assume paid; check for a PandaDoc execution record or a Stripe/wire receipt dated around Jul 14–21, 2025 before including this in any client-facing total.

05
Emanay-Absorbed Costs (Not Billed to Client)

These are costs Alex/Emanay has stated, in writing or on recorded calls, that Emanay covered rather than billing the client. They are Emanay's own internal cost, not client-owed amounts, and should not appear on any invoice to Dani.

DateAmountContext
Jul 14–15, 2025~$10,000"I have already come out of pocket $10,000 on valuation work alone + costs of running your deal" (email)
Jun 7–8, 2026~$14,000–15,000"Pretty sure I've covered almost 15k on my end" (chat); "~$14k in costs to date" (Fathom recap, next day)
Jun 8, 2026 (ongoing)March accounting servicesExplicitly absorbed per the invoice dispute resolution
The Jul 2025 (~$10K) and Jun 2026 (~$14–15K) figures are stated a year apart and almost certainly do not represent the same pool of costs — but this has not been confirmed against any internal ledger. Do not add them together (~$24–25K) without checking first.
06
Disputed / Unreconciled Client Statements — Do Not Bill Against These

Two previously-flagged figures were resolved in Section 02 above: "$25k on report" (Jul 14, 2025) and "we paid them 30k" (Sep 25, 2025) both refer to the confirmed $4,630 + $25,000 = $29,630 paid to CapForge. The remaining figures below still lack a confirmed, itemized basis and should not be used for additional billing.

07
Recommended Next Steps Before Finalizing Any Bill
1Do not attempt to reconstruct Dani's $60K or "$15K refundable" figures into a bill — some portion remains unidentified even after the CapForge reconciliation.
2Confirm whether the $10K (Jul 2025) and $14–15K (Jun 2026) Emanay-absorbed-cost figures overlap.
