Break-Even Calculator Notes

  • What is Break-Even?

    The break-even point is where total revenue equals total costs. At this point, you make neither a profit nor a loss.

  • Formulas

    Break-Even Units = Fixed Costs / (Selling Price - Variable Cost)

    Contribution Margin = Selling Price - Variable Cost

    CM Ratio = Contribution Margin / Selling Price

  • Important Notes

    Fixed costs include rent, salaries, and insurance. Variable costs include materials and direct labour.

    Understanding your break-even helps with pricing decisions and sales targets.
