    If you have any questions, either the buy prices/value of the items change or flight times change, think I am wrong anywhere, or have a suggestion (such as a better layout change, or anything else), plz mail me or just start a conversation!

    All this information assumes that you travel on a PI airstrip with pilot. Profit per trip and profit per 24 hours also assumes that you only carry 19 items back with you (default 5 items, large suitcase bonus 4 items, and Private Island bonus 10 items). It also assumes you sell items at value price, and that you only buy flowers.


    Here is the decimal version if you'd prefer. Both charts are flawed, but decimal version gives a better idea of total profit that can be gained:


    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1RGwSQs1yGmgP3qFgUJSCdylRE1TC4v75GSlzfw3BQvA/edit#gid=0

    If the key is difficult to use, tell me and I'll change it to full words (will make information look bulkier)



    The formula to calculate more/less items would be:

    More items:

    Profit per trip with 19 items + (*money*tp x amount of extra items)

    Less items:

    Profit per trip with 19 items - (*money*tp x amount of subtracted items)



    Then, with the newly acquired Profit Per Trip you just calculated, times that by total flights per day, and, voilà, new total profit per day calculated. Id recommend writing that down on your own sheet or document for easy accessibility for you.



    Layout:

    *Country*: *Flower type* - *Price each* | *Value each* | *Profit each*

    Per trip: (*Total price* | *Total value*); *Total profit* per trip with 19 items.

    *Time in minutes* per flight (both ways). *amount* total flights every 24 hours, *Time in minutes* free time.

    *Total Profit per trip x flights* every 24 hours with 19 items.



    Key:

    (money)e = (money)each. Etc $400e means $400 each/per item.

    (money)t = (money)total. Etc $7,600t means $7,600 total for 19 items.

    (money)tp = (money)total profit. Etc $53,600tp means $53,600 total profit per item.



    Extra Information:

    Loss of potential energy and nerve when doing big flights (UAE, China etc.)

    Special things per location (Cayman Islands bank, South Africa hunting etc.)

    Non-airstrip travel (new travel times and cost of travelling)

    RR+ Very efficient system. Totally useful if you do loads of runs. I don't see the point in having it pinpoint accurate but you can do that version for them "perfectionists. Start making the most efficient runs people, save your money.

    Thanks Tony-Stark! And the decimal system isn't accurate as you aren't actually making that money in that day, but it is accounting fo the extra time you travel. Either way, both methods are flawed, it's all a matter of preference. Thanks for the input :3

    Been struggling a bit understanding how to make money so thanks heaps for this and the detailed job you did. I see that my net worth is xxx dollars but where it is I have no idea. Gunna get lots of frequent flyer points I reckon and will have to work on a PI with the airstrip thing you wrote of.

    Plushie guide is apprenticed also.

    Tkx mate, Kozmo

    Thanks for the comment! I'm glad I could help, I think the figures are still accurate from when I updated them last. I'd completely forgotten about this, so I may have to do a few updates and maybe put out the profit you can get for points from flowers, we'll see.

    I always check: https://yata.alwaysdata.net/bazaar/abroad/

    Very nice breakdown of profit per hour of every item abroad.

    You should also aim to carry 24+ items. Faction perk, PI and large suitcase. In my case it is 29. That's 53% profit increase from 19 items.
