Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 1 reagent for one craft of Brilliant Scarlet Ruby cost 4 gold76 silver.

Break-even is 5 gold1 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 11 gold57 silver, which clears it.

At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 6 gold81 silver; the Auction House would keep 57 silver85 copper of a sale, leaving 6 gold23 silver. That is an estimated 130.9% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 8.5% of the gross.

Listing depth right now: 20 units across 3 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
