An edition of 50 is a promise — each pull numbered, artist proofs on the side, and no more when it's done. Your costs are paper by the sheet, ink, and the block or screen that took a week to carve and belongs to the whole run. MadeKeeper tracks the edition as an edition: how many pulled, how many sold, what each print really costs.

Say you pull a linocut edition of 50:
At $40 a print, the full edition grosses $2,000.00 on $112.70 of materials — the economics that make editions worth the carving week, visible at last.
Materials and true cost per piece, products (in bulk or one-of-a-kind), sales that drain stock, the was-this-fair-worth-it event math, mileage, expenses, and the year-end tax packet — all in the app today. Etsy and Square sync, your own storefront, a booth card reader, and shipping labels are building, shaped with founding makers. Nothing above describes a feature that doesn't exist without saying so.

An edition logs with its size and AP count; each sale draws down the run. You'll always know it's 31 of 50 sold — and the flat file count matches the ledger.
Log it as tooling amortized across the edition — a $14 share per 50-print run, or however your numbers fall. Reprints of an open edition just keep spreading it thinner.
Yes. Limited editions close at their number; open editions run on. Each keeps its own costs, prices, and sales history.
