How it works

Three quick inputs reveal the sales volume you need to stop losing money.

1

Enter your fixed costs

Add up the expenses you pay no matter how much you sell, such as rent, software, and salaries. Enter the total for the period you are measuring.

2

Add price and variable cost

Enter the price you charge for one unit and the variable cost it takes to produce or deliver that unit, such as materials and shipping.

3

Read your break-even point

The calculator shows how many units and how much revenue you need to cover all costs. Anything above that line is profit.
