Builds a working temporal schema for assets, rooms and people and shows queries that actually run: PostgreSQL 9.2 range types store time spans, exclusion constraints prevent overlapping assignments, and btree_gist backs the indexes. Includes a billing function that uses range intersection billing to prorate costs, a live demo that recovers from minor terminal glitches, and example results (an IT holding two assets totaling 880000) proving the approach both usable and performant.
