==Description==
This template is designed for use in the [[Money making Guide]]s. With an input of the cost of items bought and items sold, and the amount processed in an hour, it outputs a star rating for this with a calculated profit value, rounded to the nearest 1,000. The star rating corresponds to the following table, agreeded up in [[Forum:Money Method Metric]]:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
!Profit range||Number of stars||
|-
|Profit ≥ 500,000||5||'''*****
|-
|250,000 ≤ Profit < 500,000||4||'''*****
|-
|150,000 ≤ Profit < 250,000||3||'''*****
|-
|100,000 ≤ Profit < 150,000||2||'''*****
|-
|50,000 ≤ Profit < 100,000||1||'''*****
|-
|0 ≤ Profit < 50,000||0||'''*****
|-
|0 > Profit||5, red||'''*****
|}

==Usage==
<pre>{{Effectiveness
|buy = value of items bought, no commas, brackets not required
|sell = value of items sold, no commas, brackets not required
|amount = amount of items processed per hour, no commas

==Notes==
*If using [[Template:GEPrice]], the <code>|n</code> parameter must be used (i.e. {{t|GEPrice|item|n}}) for items worth 1,000 coins or more (as this removes the comma). If worth less than 1,000, <code>|n</code> should still be included incase the item ''does'' reach 1,000 coins or more in the future.
*The ''output'' parameter can be left out completely if both the stars and the value are wanted.
*This is designed for use in a table, but can be used alone.
*Please see [[RuneScape:WikiGuilds/Money Method Metric|here]] for discussing changes to the table.
