Abstract
The article presents a program (technique) for research in forensic commodity examinations involving market value assessment of industrial equipment. The subject matter and the object of forensic commodity examinations of industrial equipment are identified, the range of tasks faced by a commodity expert is outlined; the most common questions raised to the experts are listed. The methods for expert study are described as well as a particular example from expert practice is given. The author suggests a sequence and main stages of the expertise in question, including the one using only the provided documents if they contain the necessary information about the object of the research and its “life cycle”. Using the documents, an expert can draft an “image of the object” and establish the factors affecting its quality, possible reasons for quality change, the extent of deterioration in quality and others. The article addresses the difficulties emerging before the experts during the examination of the industrial equipment, which are mostly related to the assessment of its wear and tear at a specific date.
