These numbers seem a bit high, more than a bit actually. Golden Rainbow is plagued with super huge shortages everywhere. Taking care of the supply is impossible because it's difficult to even take care of your own supplies needed.
I'm going to use an example from game and from real life to explain why this is needed. AT MARKET VALUE: Software in game has a base production of 1.5M valued at 1022 (so 1.533B)and requires 939.1M. That leads to a CM-Labor=39%. At market value 61% of the revenues recieved will be drained. Keep in mind this only accounts for materials and not price markups or quality over 100, yet it also doesn't account for sales over 100 either. So to use numbers I think is fair and conservative i'll use a 20% markup on cost of materials and triple the sales price (conservative numbers as a control to make my point less valid thus proving it). (1.2*939.1)/(3*1533)=1127/459

The market balance is a complex issue in simcountry and it depends mainly on the markets. we are staying out of it if we can and as long as there is no danger for a collapse.
There are more parameters.
When the price of vegetables goes up, countries buy less (the purchase vegetables for a fixed percentage of salaries).
This means that consumption is reduced when the product pricing goes up and the other way round.
If there is a reduction, more will be ordered.
A small change of 10% in the use of raw materials, will go together with a 10% increase in the cost of the materials. otherwise the corporation balance of income and cost will be disturbed. This could triggers different problems.
We are in the midst of a process that gradually reduces pricing and we think that eventually shortages will be reduced. These shortages are smaller in some worlds.
We have recently improved the working of C3 economies.

Ok, as long as this problem is understood. But I mean it seems to be a HUGE problem. Like I only put the money stuff in there to get attention really its just on Golden Rainbow there really is no concept of supply and demand at all.
As for the vegatables example I lied on that one, I actually refererenced import capacity compared to export capacity, but rather than trying to explain that I used a fictitious situation. The point of that was simply to state that the larger an empire is the more self sustaining it can be. It can output more goods in refereence to what it needs in larger populations. "Agathon" from Plato's Republic is a fine reference. At least my country with twice the pop seems to do a way better job producing more than it takes in anyways. I guess I might be wrong.
But with all due respect I don't believe your response to be entirely true. Because this would impact all corporations some more than ot

"We have recently improved the working of C3 economies. They now close more corporations that are failing and produce products that are in oversupply and they setup new corporations producing products that show shortages."
Kudos to the Creator.
