About This Turnip Planner

Turnips in New Horizons are simple to buy, yet hard to sell well. This calculator helps you turn island notes into a clear selling plan. It combines your Sunday buy price, turnip count, optional travel cost, target profit, and every daily quote from Monday through Saturday.

Why Price Tracking Matters

The stalk market changes twice each day. A morning price can be weak, while the afternoon price can become the best sale of the week. Because the market closes after Saturday night, waiting too long can turn a good week into a complete loss. A written price table helps you compare each quote without guessing.

What The Tool Measures

The calculator checks every entered price. It finds the strongest sale window, the weakest quote, average price, price range, total sale value, net profit, return percentage, and break-even price. It also estimates the target sell price needed for your chosen profit goal. These values are useful when you visit another island and need to know whether a higher quote is worth the trip fee.

Using Results Wisely

A high best price does not always mean perfect timing. You should also watch risk. If the best price appears early, selling part of your stock can protect your bells. If prices keep falling, the break-even price becomes the most important number. When the calculator marks the pattern as decreasing, consider selling before the loss grows.

Practical Turnip Tips

Record both morning and afternoon prices each day. Add visitor fees or tips before judging profit. Keep your turnip quantity accurate, because small errors grow quickly with high prices. Use the trips estimate when you hold more turnips than one inventory can carry. Save the CSV report for your notes. Use the PDF report when sharing a weekly plan with friends. The goal is not to promise the future. The goal is to make each known quote easier to compare before your turnips spoil. That clarity saves time during busy sessions.

Final Thought

This planner cannot predict every future quote. It does give a clean view of the prices you already know. With that view, you can sell with less stress and make better decisions before the week ends.

FAQs

What is a turnip calculator for New Horizons?

It helps compare your buy price, sell prices, quantity, fees, profit, and return. It shows the best known sale point from the prices you enter.

Can this calculator predict future turnip prices?

No. It analyzes known prices only. It can classify a simple pattern, but it cannot guarantee the next quote or final weekly market result.

Why should I enter both morning and afternoon prices?

The game changes prices twice per day. A poor morning quote can become a strong afternoon quote, so both entries improve your selling decision.

What does break-even price mean?

It is the minimum sell price needed to recover your buy cost and any entered travel fee. Selling below it creates a loss.

How is net profit calculated?

Net profit equals gross sale value minus the original turnip cost and optional island fee. This gives a cleaner view of real gain.

What should I enter as travel fee?

Use any bells paid to visit another island, including tips, entry fees, or trade costs. Enter zero when there is no extra cost.

Why does the calculator show trips needed?

Turnips occupy inventory space. The trips estimate helps when your total quantity is larger than one island visit can carry.

When should I sell my turnips?

Sell when the price meets your goal, beats break-even safely, or offers a strong return. Avoid waiting too long when prices keep falling.
