Frequently Asked Questions

What is the break-even point?
The number of units you must sell so total revenue equals total costs — no profit, no loss.
How is it calculated?
Break-Even Units = Fixed Costs / (Price per Unit - Variable Cost per Unit).
What if variable cost exceeds price?
You cannot break even. Each sale increases the loss. You need to raise prices or reduce variable costs.
