What is a Break-even Point?

The break-even point tells you how much you need to sell to cover your costs. It’s the moment your business moves from loss to profit — when your total revenue equals your total expenses.

Why It Matters for Your Business

  • Set clear sales goals: Know exactly how many units you need to sell to stay out of the red.
  • Plan pricing strategies: Adjust your prices smartly to reach profitability sooner.
  • Control costs: Identify whether your fixed or variable costs are affecting your profits more.

How to Use This Calculator

Choose whether you want to calculate by units or by price:

  • Break-even in Units: Enter your fixed cost, variable cost per unit, and selling price.
  • Break-even in Price: Enter fixed cost, total variable cost, and the number of units.

Click the "Calculate" button and you’ll instantly see the break-even point based on your inputs.

Formula Behind the Scenes

  • Break-even Units = Fixed Cost ÷ (Price per Unit – Variable Cost per Unit)
  • Break-even Price = (Fixed Cost + Total Variable Cost) ÷ Number of Units

Helpful Tips

  • Lowering fixed or variable costs can help you break even faster.
  • Revisit your break-even analysis regularly—especially when costs or pricing change.
  • This tool is great for startups, product launches, and budgeting new ideas.
