Keeping track of goods/resources prices...

[AngryPanCake]

Hello landlubbers,

I was wondering how traders are keeping track of the goods prices?

For instance, if you buy certain goods to sell at a different market, the number of goods you own show up in the trade window, but the purchase price doesn't...or did I just not see it.

So, do you guys just write down every goods you buy and their prices? What about goods you produce in your buildings, any "easy" way to figure out the cost?

Thank you,

Thanks Otto, what I was looking for is how a player keeps track of his purchased goods/resource prices.

For instance, I buy 20 coal at 100, 120 hemp at 30, 90 pine at 60 and sail to a different port, then open the buy/sell menu.

It will show owned: 20 coal, 120 hemp and 90 pine. It will show the listed buy/sell prices at that particular port, but won't show the original purchase prices of the owned goods. So, I guess, one has to keep a pen and paper ledger of the amounts of goods, their original purchase prices in order to keep track whether one is going to make money or not!
