Yesterday I sold 147 aircrafs ( air plane ) from my factory at Riga ( Latvia) to my wharehouse at Riga at the price per unit of 19.5 billions. Today I have the same price per unit of 19.5 B in the sale page, ( that means i didn't make any mistake by entering the per unit price), but the total revenue in the financial report of the factory is 29388 Billons and the taxes paid in the transaction are 3978.3 B.
The amount paid in taxes is a big loss for me. I don't know if there are other taxes to pay in a transaction in the same city but the transport of 1 aircrat from Riga to Riga cost only 10750 $ in the page of transport information of the game.
If you made corrections and are in doubt which price will apply during the update, you can go to the subdivision that purchases goods and check the supply page. Price changes are displayed in a format of [old price] / [new price].
Below example of increasing price from $80 to $100, before and after:
The "$80/$100" means that during upcoming update I will pay $80, but the next one it will be a $100.
Thanks a lot kw2585. I come to test what you say before. I invite everyone to test it by himself if he wants.
I have an old conctrat of steel in one facility. I created a new wharehouse in the same city of my factory of steel. I create a new contract of steel in this wharehouse.
Then I changed many times the old price of the steel of the factory and i verified what happened in the two facilities.
The price ( old and new ) appear as you said before. But any correction of the price that i made in the factory is udpated in the two facilies immediately ( the old and the new wharehouse created ).
So there must be a dysfunctionement of the system ( bug ) if it doesn't take the correction of the aircraft price that i made some second or minutes later.
the system behavior you report is confusing. I fully understand your disappointment. It's only via this discussion that I learnt about the intricacies of the "initial price" vs "new price" concept - so thanks for bringing it up.
I think at this point, it will be tech support to analyze the problem. What I have done before was sending them a support message with a problem report, including a link to the respective Forum discussion with my screenshots displaying the problem. It helps, cause some bugs are really nasty beasts, and come and go: my bug report
It may be convenient for the support folks and easier to convince them, if you can provide screenshots that exactly show system behavior in your case (round1: initial price & contract, round 2: new price, round 3: revenue/tax result after update). It may be even more convincing to do it in the exact same plant/warehouse with the same airplane good. Of course, it need not be #147 pieces, but maybe 1 or 2.
