Legend

  • Price: Listed sell price for the item
  • Volume: Unit quantity which can be reprocessed before saturating market supply or demand at current prices
  • Profit: Assuming a net reprocessing yield of 55% and sales tax of 3.6%, this figure is the profit projection attainable by purchasing, processing, and selling the resulting scrap of the item at the indicated Price and Volume.
  • PctROI: Percent return on investment. If you do not have Scrapmetal Processing V and/or are trading at a station which charges a processing fee, you can use this value to help determine if an item can be profitably processed. For instance, with an effective reprocessing yield is 50%, ISK will be lost attempting to reprocess any items with a pctROI of less than 5.
  • *Please note that items which are not governed by the Scrapmetal Processing skill such are ores may appear on this report. These items generally have far greater profit potential than indicated, as achieving reprocessing/refinement yields greater than 55% is generally not very difficult even in high-security space.
