Hello All,

I wanted to share the first release of my PI Trader spreadsheet. I know there are a bunch of these out there. However in PI Trader I have tried to aim for new players or players that need multiple amounts information on a single screen.

In this beta release you will be able to view and see profit for creating a "Broadcast Node" on a single spreadsheet with the following features:

- Profit for making each Item from RAW to advance allowing you to find the sweet spot in the market
- Ordering of what materials make what items
- Display of QTY needed for each stage

Whats not included

- Sales tax - In progress
- Export/import tax In progress

Features to come:

- Prices for all major hubs
- All PI items to be included - Complete
- Buy orders to be listed

Layout Design

Each stage will have 3 to 4 rows which calculate the following:

QTY - Quantity of materials extracted or required per cycle

Profit - This is the overall profit you will make selling the item at that stage. After the first stage you will start to see I'm taking into account the profit from the previous stage. What this does is shows if its best to sell on stage 1 or sell at stage 2 rather than stage 3 etc...

POCO Tax This will be the rate in which your POCO's are set up. The default is 0%. You can change the flat rate at the bottom which will change the rate for all sections. You can also overwrite different rates for each section.

Import Tax This will be the tax cost to import that material using the default cycle amount

Export Tax This will be the tax cost to export your completed product from that POCO at the required stage per cycle.

Total Sale - This is basically the full sale price of the item created at the current jita price. This value does not take into consideration of the previous stage profit that could have been made.

Jita Price - The lookup price from the TypID sheet to pull current prices. I'm search for Sale/Maximum

Please feel free to keep an eye on my progression and also let me know if you have any features or improvements. I have basic skills in spreadsheets ;)

I rly like the COLOR scheme you used and the design. I dislike the use of $ instead of ISK.

The Spreadsheet is useful for extraction planets.
It can't be used for Factory planets.

Keep it up :) Always good to see someone trying a little bit of spreadsheets

I believe I can create a custom format to display isk I will look into that.

I agree it does not help on factory planets, but it does give you a rough idea what is worth making on the planet.

Thank you for your feedback

awesome i've been looking for one of these for a few days! manually finding prices was a *****

easy to fix but HUGE flaw:

Polyaramids
QTY 5
Profit 26,975.00 ISK
Total Sale 44,555.00 ISK
Jita Sell 8,911.00 ISK

Genetic Enhenced Livestock
QTY 5
Profit 15,340.20 ISK
Total Sale 36,200.00 ISK
Jita Sell 7,240.00 ISK


QTY should be 10 going into P3, after the 5 out of P2....


>>>

Hermetic Membranes
QTY 3
Profit 130,445.00 ISK
Total Sale 211,200.00 ISK
Jita Sell 70,400.00 ISK

profit should be 49,490 over the P2's.. not 130,000

130,000 would be amazing, 300M+ isk/day for no effort? per character? yes please.

and then

>

Self-Harmonizing Power Core
QTY 1
Profit 717,819.94 ISK
Total Sale 1,339,998.97 ISK
Jita Sell 1,339,998.97 ISK

should be

Profit 95,640.97 ISK ~ - not counting the thousands in import/export that kills it. - i haven't finished that bit yet.

717k isk profit would be spectacular.

ED: and this isn't even counting taxes

i might remake your spreadsheet to be accurate...

ED: getting closer - if you have a taxed NPCCO, at 10% current values, you lose money on EVERY SINGLE P4, if you have to import the P3's.. i mean, 100k+ loss each

many of the P3's with imported P2's make bank though... or P2's with imported P1's... P1>3 would be a go-to moneymaker for people with little capital, and P1>P2 great for noobs with next to none..

if you could find a low tax lowsec set of customs offices, a lot more items become profitable

but as it is, overall, many MANY items are unbelievably undervalued.

You should add a drop down that lets a person set their tax rate since the tax rate is the #1 deciding factor if an item is profitable or not to extract, manufacture and sell.

Also your values are wrong for each of the PI requirements for P4 items. 3000 P0 make 20 P1, but P2 items require 40 P1 in the P2. P3 require 10 P2, P4 require 6 P3 etc.

Sound Interessing but ... but what ... have se the new change ... of what ? High sec Custome office and mechanical
whats mean ?
have you see Dust and conquerable District Cost ?
if an Eve corporation shall managed a district for control Custom office ? how it cost It each day in Constested Time Zone ?
38m per package of 150 Clone for each wave and lot of 150 stuff trooper isk in dust .. and more in Eve ( custom office build and defense )

have you count expand of attack / defense security business in your sheet : lost ship for exemple too
so the Taxe and primary invest in planets are not enough for evaluate the cost of your production ;) lot of factor will be add

- Prices for all major hubs : price of what ? seller offer book or current echange price ?

for current exchange price we can't have an intraday value , juste an average value each day ...
he way to be traveled sowed(scattered) with trap in the work of evaluation of the production costs of objects in Eve... courage Blink

Noted:the raw at 10 isk / pc are not a heresy if we count all random factor of rigor of space ...;)

Ps: there are difference between average price exchange with volume available at this price and necessary volume of your production (see the sell order volume statistique for That )
in some Ev market Agregator a indicator at 5% indicate low price but low volume , you need to evaluate over factor like average harmonic and more for ( ex : http://eve-central.com/home/quicklook.html?typeid=2310 ) and aggregate some market data are not good indcator for single market
and some other site truncated order sell providing some false date . so warning when you use them

Not sure what happened to my values. They were correct, however I did do a reload and i'm wondering if it loaded an incorrect version.

I can correct the values easy enough.

A drop down value would be a good idea, I will look at that. I don't pay POCO taxes so this is why that feature was on my list still. I originally created this just for personal use. But a few people in the corp said it was a nice clear layout.

OK I have now added the POCO tax for one of the sections "Broadcast Node".

The TAX value per item is based around the default CCP values as below:

PI Tax Rates
R0 = 5 isk base cost
P1 = 500 isk base cost
P2 = 9,000 isk base cost
P3 = 70,000 isk base cost
P4 = 1,350,000 isk base cost

The default POCO tax rate is currently at 0% which can be changed at the bottom of the table. You can also overwrite the tax value per resource section.

Please do check my calculations I done this while at work ;) Lazy day.

I also correct the amount of resources required for the next stage and accounted that in the values
