Disaster Recovery
How to overcome the unexpected• Keeping physical and/or digital copies of
asset invoices and warranties

What’s hiding in the dark?
• Ghost Assets• Lost, stolen, or unusable assets that are still on the books
• Zombie Assets• Any asset that is physically in use, but not represented on the
books

Zombie Assets
• Why do they matter?• If you have fixed assets that physically exist, but are not
represented on your books, you have zombie assets prowling your financials.
