The following program is code for a simple html calculator that calculates the mathematics of a potential market reset in the wow auction house.

To use the file cut and past the code into notepad and then save it as something with a .htm extension. It should then open in a brower when you open the file again.

I went into some detail about how to do market resets in a recent video so I'm not going to go into further detail on how to do this here. Mostly the calculator is self-explanatory.

This calculator is currently still in beta at the time of posting and may have bugs/issues.

Please tell me if you would prefer another format such as .exe. I'm wary of posting anything which could get flagged as a virus erroneously but I'm happy to listen to alternative suggestions.

(Highlight the code inbetween the lines and press ctrll+c to copy the document then paste into notepad)

<h2>Results:</h2>

<h3>Basic Calculations</h3>

<p>Initial Investment: ${initialInvestment.toFixed(2)} gold</p>

<p>Net Selling Price (after AH cut): ${netSellingPrice.toFixed(2)} gold</p>

<p>Maximum Potential Profit: ${totalNetProfit.toFixed(2)} gold</p>

<p>Maximum Potential ROI: ${roi.toFixed(2)}%</p>

<h3>Risk Analysis</h3>

<p class="${riskClass}">Overall Risk Level: ${riskLevel} (${(riskFactors.weightedRisk * 100).toFixed(1)}%)</p>

<p>Risk-Adjusted Profit: ${riskAdjustedProfit.toFixed(2)} gold</p>

<p>Risk-Adjusted ROI: ${riskAdjustedROI.toFixed(2)}%</p>

<p>Estimated Sell Time: ${estimatedSellTime.toFixed(1)} days</p>

<p>Market Recovery Risk: ${recoveryRisk}</p>

<h3>Risk Factors:</h3>

<ul>

<li>Market Volume Impact: ${(riskFactors.volumeRisk * 100).toFixed(1)}%</li>

<li>Competitor Impact: ${(riskFactors.competitorRisk * 100).toFixed(1)}%</li>

<li>Recovery Speed Impact: ${(riskFactors.recoveryRisk * 100).toFixed(1)}%</li>
