What Is Break-Even Analysis?

Break-even analysis determines the point at which total revenue equals total costs — the moment your business stops losing money and starts making it. Below break-even, every sale still loses money after covering fixed costs. Above it, every sale generates profit.

The Break-Even Formula

Break-Even Units = Fixed Costs / (Price per Unit − Variable Cost per Unit). The denominator is called the contribution margin — the amount each sale contributes toward covering fixed costs. The higher your contribution margin, the fewer units you need to sell to break even.
