Break-Even Point Calculator

Break-Even Point Calculator

Find out exactly how many units you need to sell before a product or service stops losing money. Enter fixed costs, variable cost per unit, and sale price per unit, and the calculator returns break-even units, break-even revenue, contribution margin, and a profit/loss table at volumes ranging from zero to twice the break-even point.

Optional fields let you compute the units needed to hit a specific profit target and the margin of safety at a forecast volume — useful for pricing decisions, business plans, and pitch decks.

Как использовать

1. Pick a currency and enter your total fixed costs for the period (rent, salaries, software, insurance — costs that stay flat regardless of volume).
2. Представляем variable cost per unit — materials, packaging, payment processing, sales commission, anything that scales with each sale.
3. Представляем sale price per unit. Results update automatically.
4. Optional: add a target profit to see how many units you need to sell beyond break-even to hit that goal.
5. Optional: enter a forecast volume (your sales projection or last period’s actual units) for a margin-of-safety read.

Возможности

• Break-even units & revenue – the exact volume and sales figure at which total costs equal total revenue.
• Contribution margin – per-unit dollar margin and ratio so you can see how much each sale actually contributes to covering fixed costs.
• Target-profit volume – units required to hit a specific profit goal on top of break-even.
• Margin of safety – the gap between your forecast volume and the break-even point, in units and percent.
• Profit / loss table – revenue, total cost, and profit at 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%, 125%, 150%, and 200% of break-even volume.
• Multi-currency display – $, €, £, ¥, ₹, A$, C$ for cleaner reports.
• Live calculation – results update as you type, no submit button required.
• Copy-friendly output – plain-text, monospaced layout that pastes cleanly into emails, docs, and slide notes.
