How it works
The formula behind this calculator.
units = fixedCosts / (price − variableCost)
- fixedCosts
- Total fixed costs (rent, salaries, etc.)
- price
- Selling price per unit
- variableCost
- Cost to produce each unit
Break-even is the number of units you need to sell so that total revenue equals total cost. Below it: loss. Above it: profit.
Example: $5,000 fixed, $25 price, $15 variable → 500 units to break even

Tips
- 💡 Break-even doesn't include opportunity cost or the time value of money. Use NPV for long projects.
- 💡 Fixed costs must be truly fixed — if they change with units, the analysis is more complex.
