Actor running at negative profit margin, need cost breakdown guidance
I got an email today saying my Actor (shashankms2580/google-ads-transparency-scraper) is running at a negative profit margin (-91.6%).
Revenue: $4.40
Cost: $8.43
Deficit: -$12.46
I want to understand why the costs are higher than the revenue even though I set PPE pricing (Run Start Fee, Lite Mode, Full Mode, etc.).
Where exactly can I see the cost breakdown per run in the console?
Could this be due to the way I priced my events vs how platform usage is calculated?
Is there a way to adjust my event pricing so I don’t keep running into losses?
Any guidance on how to analyze and optimize this would be really helpful!
Thanks!
