Workshops and Profit
The amount of workshops in production at your EC depends on your prestige. The limit is four. All the necessities can be made, including mash, tax, boxes, other workshops, and water troughs to name a few. Before using the item you created for your EC, it’s possible to sell it back – including other workshops!
Sizing: There is no “discount” in supplies needed to make items in large workshops compared to small workshops. Large workshops allow you to create more of the item in the same amount of time.
Wear: Workshops will wear everyday, even when they’re not in use – might as well have a constant production if possible!
Profit: When selling items for profit, keep in mind the cost of production. Compare this cost to the price it’ll sell for at the store – this is always half of what the buying price is. Example: Water troughs sell from the store for around 30,000e so if you create some in your workshop, you’ll only receive 15,000e when selling it back. If you have the iron in your inventory, this is a pretty good trade. However if you had to buy iron to make the trough, it’s best to keep it for your consumption; you probably had to pay around 15,000e just for the supplies.
Thanks to Howrse user jennyael, here is an excel sheet with the most profitable items! The top few include Apples and Carrots, followed by other crops. Other specialty items aren’t as profitable

Does anyone know whether I can sell a workshop I made after I decided to keep it.
It hasn’t been used but I didn’t realise I couldn’t have two going at the same time with my current prestige.
Is there any way to sell it?
@Catherine – I don’t think you can once you agree to keep it. Just hang onto it and let it wear. Don’t repair it until your prestige increases.
