ARC·ECONOMY

Methodology

Every formula behind ARC ECONOMY: craft margins, loot EV, flip spreads, kit budgeting — plus the [VERIFY] placeholder policy and sources.

Craft profit

profit = sellPrice × (1 − marketFee%) − Σ(componentPrice × qty)
margin %  = profit ÷ Σ(componentPrice × qty)

Raid loot EV

EV per raid = extractionRate × Σ(dropChanceᵢ × valueᵢ)
EV per hour = EV per raid ÷ (raidTime + lobbyTime)

Market flipping

net = (sell − buy) × qty − fees
ROI = net ÷ (buy × qty) × 100

Fees default to an editable placeholder [VERIFY against the current market fee schedule].

Kit budget

Cost per death amortization: a kit that costs C and survives on average 1 ÷ (1 − extractionRate) raids costs C × (1 − extractionRate) per raid in expectation.

The [VERIFY] policy

Prices ship as editable placeholders — the math is exact, the defaults are yours to fill. Review date: 2026-10-08. Update flow: fix src/data/site.ts → bump the date → changelog entry.
