Forum:Looking for repair calculation values

I'm looking to figure out when it makes more sense to repair items or keep the copies in order to get the most caps. This is especially important in the early part of the game when your repair skill isn't that high. I have the 360 version of F3 and so I don't have access to console commands that I could use to freely manipulate my repair skills and other such things to do decent tests.

What I'm looking for:

-the calculation that determines the value of an item based on its current condition

-the calculation that determines how high you can repair an item (how high you can make its condition rise to) based on your current repair skill

Any idea where I could find these?
