If you are not selling as much tech as you can you are not maximizing your finish.
I guess I'm just being lazy-
If I drop my tech-
18,450*5.3*1 = 97785 bushels per turn
To maximize my sale of tech I would have to sell it all at the end of set.
360,000 tech to sell:
360,000*.45 = 162000 (sell 1)
360,000 - 162000 = 198000 (remaining after sale 1)
198000*.45 = 89100 (sell 2)
198000 - 89100 = 108900 (remaining after sale 2)
108900*.45 = 49005 (sell 3)
108900 - 49005 = 59895 (Remaining after sale 3)
Sale 4 not worth it.
So 45 mins on market is worse case scenario-
3 x 45 = 135mins / 4 mins a turn = 34 turns
So- we've got
360,000-59,895 = 300,105 sold from 3 sales
34 turns missed from 2.2 tech
18,450*5.3*1*2.2 =
215127 bushels (gained from 2.2 tech)
vs
97785 bushels (gained from 1.49 tech) <---- since you have 59895 tech remaining (i checked on eestats)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scenario 1:
215127 x 34 = (7314318 * 34) + 0 = $248,686,812
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scenario 2:
97785 x 34 = 3657159 * 1.49 = (5449166 *34) + (300,105*1000) = $485,376,644 (but now you have to subtract the net from selling tech)
300,000 x 2 = 600,000k networth lost.
$485,376,644 - 600k netloss vs $248,686,812.
600k net is about $144000000 when you buy troops at $120
341,376,644 vs 248,686,812
So in conclusion-
It was better to sell all tech 135mins out (or 34 turns out) 3x, if you can buy troops or other units comparably to $120 with money with food at $34.
