Break-even analysis

Units and revenue a business needs to cover fixed and variable costs, and to reach a profit target.

What you enter

  • Fixed costs per month
  • Selling price per unit
  • Variable cost per unit
  • Target profit per month
  • Units you expect to sell per month

How this is calculated

  • Contribution margin = price − variable cost per unit.
  • Break-even units = fixed costs ÷ contribution margin.
  • Units for target profit = (fixed costs + target profit) ÷ contribution margin.
