Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Transmute: Wild Jade cost 7 gold49 silver. Most of that is Golden Lotus - 1 at 4 gold99 silver each, 4 gold99 silver, 66.6% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 7 gold88 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 7 gold27 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −22 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 36 silver35 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 58 silver35 copper at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -7.8% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 2,460 units across 31 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
