I was looking for this today and I think it should be a guide.

Directly from Cpt Jack's post:


-East India company affects BASE price.
-Dutch/English/Spanish do not affect BASE price.

Here are some examples:

Example player is Xanadu, a Welsh Duke.
We will use a Trade Galleon with 150 crates of tools loaded in its cargo.
We will assume that the Trade Galleon docks at the port of Aiora, which buys Tool crates for 20 gold coins each.

Example 1
Nothing active

Code: Select all

Port pays 150 * (20) = 3000 gold coins


East India Company active.

Code: Select all

Port pays 150 * (20 + 1) = 3150 gold coins


If Aiora was Welsh and East India Company active

Code: Select all

Port pays 150 * (20 + 1) = 3150 gold coins
Port pays an extra bonus of 10% (Duke bonus) which equals an extra 315 gold coins.


If Aiora was Welsh, East India Company was active and there were 5 Spanish India Company active.

Code: Select all

Port pays 150 * (20 + 1) = 3150 gold coins
Port pays an extra bonus of 10% (Duke bonus) which equals an extra 315 gold coins.
Port pays an extra bonus of 10% (Spanish india company bonus, this bonus does not add up with the Duke bonus) which equals an extra 315 gold coins.
Total sum paid:  3780


Same as above but with no East India Company

Code: Select all

Port pays 150 * 20 = 3000 gold coins
Port pays an extra bonus of 10% (Duke bonus) which equals an extra 300 gold coins.
Port pays an extra bonus of 10% (Spanish india company bonus, this bonus does not add up with the Duke bonus) which equals an extra 300 gold coins.
Total sum paid:  3600


While on it, here is the max yield for a full 5 trade galleon fleet, if everything is included (for verification issues)

Code: Select all

Total Cargo:  150 * 5 = 750 crates
Crate value = 25 gold coins
East India: 26 gold coins per crate
Base income: 750 * 26 = 19500 gold coins
Duke bonus: 1950 gold coins
5 Spanish IC bonus: 1950 gold coins
TOTAL income: 23400 gold coins


Does the Warehouse Tycoon bonus affect Base price or no?

Warehouse Tycoon should only kick in on manual purchases direct into the warehouse (from my reading of the description) : thus on a 'normal' trade route which buys at each end, it would have no effect on income at all. Benefit would only arise from pre-stocking and then loading from the warehouse, in which case, it should act in the same way as a WIC card.
