Break-even Calculator FAQ
What is a break-even point?
The break-even point is the sales level where total revenue covers total fixed and variable costs. At this level, profit is zero before tax and other adjustments.
What formula does this calculator use?
Break-even units are calculated as fixed costs divided by contribution margin per unit. Contribution margin per unit is selling price per unit minus variable cost per unit.
Can I calculate target profit units?
Yes. Enter a target profit amount to estimate the units and sales needed to cover fixed costs and reach that profit.
Should fixed costs be monthly or yearly?
Use the same period for all planning assumptions. For example, use monthly fixed costs with expected monthly sales units.
Does this include GST, tax, or discounts?
No. This is a basic planning calculator. Consider GST, income tax, discounts, returns, payment gateway fees, wastage, and other costs separately.
