About break-even analysis
Every business needs to know its break-even point — the moment sales start turning into profit. This calculator tells you exactly how many units you must sell and how much revenue that represents, helping you set targets, price products and judge whether an idea is viable.
Frequently asked questions
What is the break-even point?
It’s the number of units you must sell so that total revenue exactly covers total costs — no profit, no loss. Beyond it, you start making a profit.
How is it calculated?
Break-even units = fixed costs ÷ (price per unit − variable cost per unit). The bottom part is your contribution margin per unit.
Why must price be above variable cost?
If each sale doesn’t cover its own variable cost, you lose money on every unit and can never break even.
