@Jonixo given your brick example, the correct price is actually calculated for the "Brick Recipe"

(.55*.25) + (2.2*0.3) = 0.7975

This is rounded to 0.8 because the display uses 2 decimal places.

However, there is another brick recipe, Shale Brick Recipe. Since you have a price of 0 for Crushed Shale, it is doing this calculation:

((.55*.25) + (.55*0) + (4.4*0.3)) / 2 = 0.72875

Note that everything is divided by 2 at the end because this recipe makes 2 bricks each. So the overall "Brick" price uses the cheapest recipe it can find, in this case the shale brick recipe. You can either remove the shale brick recipe or set a price for Crushed Shale to get a more accurate overall price. This cheaper Brick price of 0.73 is then used for the recipes that are dependent on Brick

As for the Brick Fireplace, it appears that it used to be crafted on a Masonry Table and was updated recently (maybe 9.4??)

Right now with the calculator, setting Masonry Table to BU4 will display the correct price for Brick Fireplace:

(50 * 0.7975 * .55) + (20 * 1.75 * .55) = 41.18125

I will update this, I wonder if that was in the release notes or not...
