What is your business class fare limit in comparison to economy ?
Are you willing to pay two, three, four or even more times for business ?
For sure it depends on some factors ,so please specify.
 
Good question - depends on the length of the flight - domestic: less than 3 hours about 50% more; longer 100% more. International: almost doesn't matter since fares vary so much depending on dates and airline - but up to 4-8 times Y is fine/normal (e.g. SYD--xx_-FRA might be well under $2000 in Y but under $10,000 in J should be achievable). Of course right now - fares are a bit crazy due to the impact of the war.
 
All medium and long haul is in J, so I think of it more against the baseline fare of J for that route, which obviously fluctuates over time.

I know what is a sale and what is a fake sale, and only buy during the former if I'm paying cash.
