The result line prints the equality plus the per unit ratio. Click a table row to load that entry as Entry A with amount 1. Values here are tier buy costs, not cumulative unless noted.

World found stones cost zero and are not mixed with Husk buy prices. Pre 1.03 prices like Stone 1 at 800 are left out as outdated. Ancient stones are not buyable and hold cumulative totals. Omitted: smithing labor fees, which Hewg and Iji do not charge beyond stones.
