What the allowance actually buys
One allowance here buys 387,820 EXP, which places it 2nd of the 3 Lv 74 Carpenter tradecraft leves that record EXP. The best of them, Ground to a Halt, returns 646,380 EXP for the same allowance, 67% more.
Across that rung the return runs from 210,060 EXP to 646,380 EXP per allowance — 3 distinct figures spanning 208%, so the wrong pick leaves 436,320 EXP of the allowance unspent.
On whether to wait: the best Lv 76 Carpenter tradecraft leve returns 919,160 EXP per allowance, 42% more than the best on this rung, while the Lv 72 rung behind tops out at 826,240 EXP.
At Lv 74 this data holds 27 leves paying EXP across 2 categories: the 24 Tradecraft ones average 514,135 EXP per allowance, the 3 Fieldcraft ones 1,574,264 EXP, which puts this leve 25% below its own category's average.
Gil ranks it differently: 1,175 gil per allowance is 3rd of 3 on the same rung against 2nd on EXP, with the best there paying 4,339 gil.
White Ash Bracelet ×1 is a Lv 75 Carpenter recipe, 2 steps deep through 3 intermediates, costing 17 units of raw material and 36 crystals.
Handing that in returns 22,813 EXP and 69 gil for every unit of raw material the order swallows, and the tree needs Carpenter, Goldsmith and Weaver.
