description	Read realization and the billed-vs-collected gap, locating write-downs, write-offs, and A/R, so the practice's real economics are visible. Reach for this on any 'busy but broke' question.

Skill: Read realization

Billed hours that aren't collected are fiction.

Step 1 — Compute realization

Collected ÷ standard value; and billed-vs-collected (§3 #1).

Step 2 — Locate the leakage

Write-downs (pre-bill), write-offs (post-bill), and A/R aging.

Step 3 — Attribute the cause

Scope creep, un-budgeted matters, or collection follow-through (§3 #4, #7).

Step 4 — Act

Map the fix to the leakage source.

Output

A realization read, the billed-vs-collected gap, the leakage source, and a fix.
