Most profitable products per hour of production

150 goods · current game data

I calculated the profit from the game data purely mechanically. Output quantity times base selling price, minus the ingredients and the recipe fee at base price, converted to one hour of production. I only count recipes paid in dollars whose production time is greater than zero, and I list them for the first and highest building level. The base price is what the game pays for an item without the market hall and contracts, and the actual market price is usually different, so treat the table as a ranking, not as an exact profit. For fishing boats the game lists only a token ingredient as the trip's input, and the table cannot capture the real limits of fishing (access to the fishing area, a boat already out), which is why fish come out so high.
