NOTE: Profit is measured in $ per technician hours. It is calculated by taking the difference between an item's selling price and its build price and dividing that by the technician hours required to build it. The profit is simply how much money you make in one hour with one technician building a particular item just to sell it.
FURTHER NOTE: The profit levels stated above are wrong, for all items that include other manufactured/recovered components (Zrbite, Aqua Plastics, Ion-Beam Accelerators, Magnetic Navigation). The lost sale value of the components is not included, and this is very significant. Also, keep in mind that that each technician costs $36/hr in salary, Living Quarters, and Workshop space. Plus, recouping the "fixed costs" of hiring 50 Technicians, building their Living Quarters, and building their Workshop will take the equivalent of $67/hr x 50 Technicians x one month. If you use and hire Technicians in less than multiples of 50, these fixed and variable costs are proportionally even higher.
