Duties, shipping, refurbishment and disposal can make international returns structurally different from domestic returns.
Records to reconcile

- Duty recovery and disposal
- Refund and support cost
Warning signal
International revenue is shown without the full reverse-logistics burden.
Transaction impact
Net contribution by market may be overstated.
