Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 1 reagent for one craft of Dense Blasting Powder cost 6 silver.

Break-even is 6 silver32 copper - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 10 silver, which clears it.

At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 4 silver; the Auction House would keep 50 copper of a sale, leaving 3 silver50 copper. That is an estimated 58.3% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 12.5% of the gross.

Listing depth right now: 24,188 units across 28 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
