How many 3.5x3.5 inch decals fit on a 12x12 sheet of Cricut vinyl?

Accounting for Cricut Design Space's 0.25-inch mat margin (11.5 x 11.5 inch printable/cuttable area) and a 0.15-inch weeding gap between decals, a 12x12 vinyl sheet fits 9 decals (a 3x3 grid) at 3.5 x 3.5 inches each.

What is the standard formula for pricing handmade Cricut shirts and tumblers?

The industry-standard handmade pricing formula is: Total COGS = Blank Cost + Vinyl/Ink Cost + Packaging + (Labor Minutes / 60 * Hourly Rate). Wholesale Price = Total COGS x 2.0, and Retail Price = Total COGS x 3.0 to 4.0 (plus marketplace transaction fees such as Etsy's 9.5% + $0.45).
