2. Production Cost The sum of all the goods required to produce this item now, in trade credits.
3. Market Info This is the price range the TradeMaster will bid or ask depending on the trade level. For example, having a trade level of 0, the TradeMaster might offer you 20 for your Titanium. However, another player in the game might have a trade level of 10, to whom the TradeMaster will offer 40 credits for the same amount of Titanium. This is useful for determining if your prices beat the TradeMaster's different offers to the other players.
