Tiki Oven Cost Analysis: Potential LOSS!

[3squares]

Tiki Oven Cost/Profit comparison

The cost of each oven is $60,000. It has three recipes. To master a recipe, you must cook it 83 times. Each time you cook a recipe:

Roasted Kingfish: Cost $1,360; Income $4,600; xp 39
Profit: $4,600 - $1,360 = $3,240
Total possible profit at the time of mastery
(excluding cost of the appliance): $3,240 * 83 = $268,920
3,737 xp and 2 gems

Pan Roasted Lamb: Cost $1,310; Income $5,000; xp 87
Profit: $5,000 - $1,310 = $3,690
Total possible profit at the time of mastery
(excluding cost of the appliance): $3,690 * 83 = $306,270
7,221 xp and 2 gems

BBQ Pork: Cost $1,380; Income $6,000; xp 148
Profit: $6,000 - $1,380 = $4,620
Total possible profit at the time of mastery
(excluding cost of the appliance): $4,620 * 83 = $383,460
12,284 xp and 2 gems

Total possible profit upon mastering all recipes is
$268,920 + $306,270 + $383,460 = $958,650
23,242 xp and 6 gems

If you purchase ONE Tiki Oven, your coin profit at mastery is:
$958,650 - $60,000 = $898,650

If you purchase TEN Tiki Oven, your coin profit at mastery is:
$958,650 - $600,000 = $358,650

The maximum Tiki Ovens you can purchase and realize a profit at mastery is FIFTEEN:
$958,650 - $900,000 = $58,650

Max appliance slots (without purchasing gems) =18

18 * 60,000 = $1,080,000

If you purchase more than 15 of these appliances, you will generate a net loss, unless you continue cooking these recipes past the point of mastery. If you buy 18, for example, you will generate a net loss:
$958,650 - $1,080,000 = ($121,350)

I was wondering about that but was way to lazy to do the math. I guess if you buy alot of them, you have to keep cooking past mastery to break even. Nobody says you have to stop after the 83.

Yep. I plot it over the Excel, normally I built 20 stoves for each new stoves. Tiki Stove is too expensive, not worth to build, use the time to build others yet to master. Tiki is my lowest priority until nothing else to cook anymore
