Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Fortune Cookie cost 10 gold87 silver. Most of that is Mysterious Fortune Card - 1 at 10 gold77 silver each, 10 gold77 silver, 99.1% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 11 gold44 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 25 gold68 silver, which clears it.

At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 14 gold81 silver; the Auction House would keep 1 gold28 silver of a sale, leaving 13 gold52 silver. That is an estimated 124.4% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 8.7% of the gross.

Listing depth right now: 188 units across 11 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
