What the result means
Time to goal = remaining cash ÷ cash per minute. Payback = upgrade cost ÷ added cash per minute. These are planning estimates, not a promise of in-game returns.
How to get a useful estimate
- Watch your cash total for one uninterrupted minute.
- Enter that gain as current cash per minute.
- Check the price on the station or expansion you want.
- If possible, ask another player or test the post-upgrade rate before treating payback as exact.

Pair this with the beginner route or review the station priority tiers.
