Break-even point

Find required whole-unit sales to cover fixed costs at a constant contribution margin. Estimate only; verify assumptions, fees and taxes.

Free

Break-even units equal fixed costs divided by selling price minus variable cost per unit. The tool rounds units upward for whole-unit revenue; fixed costs of 1,000 with a unit contribution of 4 require 250 units.
