Frequently Asked Questions
What is a break-even point?
The break-even point is the level of sales at which total revenues equal total costs, resulting in neither profit nor loss. It helps businesses understand how many units they need to sell to cover all their costs.
How is the break-even point calculated?
Break-even point in units = Fixed Costs ÷ (Selling Price per Unit - Variable Cost per Unit). The formula uses your fixed costs and contribution margin to determine the number of units needed to break even.
What are fixed costs?
Fixed costs are expenses that remain constant regardless of production levels, such as rent, salaries, insurance, and loan payments. These costs must be paid even if no sales are made.
What is contribution margin?
Contribution margin is the difference between selling price and variable cost per unit. It represents how much each unit sold contributes to covering fixed costs and generating profit.
