</div>

Line 25, missing quote and comma  
` mutate { convert => ["Unit_cost", "float"] } }`  
It's less code if you follow the documentation:

```auto
      mutate {
        convert => {
          "Units_sold" => "integer"
          "Unit_price" => "float"
          "Unit_cost" => "float"
          "Total_revenue" => "float"
          "Total_cost" => "float"
          "Total_profit" => "float"
        }
      }

```

Also you can convert fields directly in [the csv plugin](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/plugins-filters-csv.html#plugins-filters-csv-convert)
