Turnip Market Planning
The turnip market in Animal Crossing New Horizons is simple at first. Daisy Mae sells turnips each Sunday morning. Nook's Cranny then offers two prices each weekday. A strong plan keeps every recorded price in one place. It also compares the sale price against the Sunday buy price. This calculator turns those numbers into profit, loss, return, and pattern notes.
Why Turnip Records Matter
Turnip prices change quickly. One missed morning can hide an important clue. Entering each price helps you see whether the week is falling, spiking, or moving randomly. A decreasing week often becomes safer to sell early. A spike week may reward patience. A fluctuating week needs careful checks. The tool does not guarantee the next offer. It gives a practical estimate from the prices you enter.
Using the Profit View
The main result shows the best recorded selling slot. It lists profit per turnip, total bells gained, return percentage, and break even price. You can add turnip quantity and visitor fees. This makes the final profit more realistic. Players who host friends can also compare fee income against possible missed sales.
Pattern Based Forecasting
The pattern selector adds context. Unknown uses a wide range. Decreasing expects weak offers. Small spike expects a moderate peak. Large spike allows a higher peak. Fluctuating expects mixed values near the buy price. The calculator also reviews entered prices. If a high value appears, the detected pattern changes to a spike note. If every known value falls, it reports a decreasing signal.
Exports and Table Use
CSV export is useful for spreadsheets. PDF export is useful for sharing or saving a weekly record. The example table shows common scenarios. It helps new players understand how quantity, price, and fees affect the final result. For best results, record prices twice daily. Do not wait until Saturday night unless the estimate still supports the risk. Turnips spoil after the week ends, so every decision should balance profit with safety. A steady routine works best. Check the shop before noon and again after noon. Save each value before changing your island date. Time travel can create spoiled turnips. Clear notes help you avoid costly mistakes and rushed selling during busy play.
