Break even calculator
Find how many units you need to sell to break even — where total revenue equals total costs.
Fixed costs ($)
Price per unit ($)
Variable cost per unit ($)
Break even formula
Break Even Units = Fixed Costs / (Price − Variable Cost)
Fixed costs $5,000. Price $25. Variable cost $10. BEP = 5000/(25−10) = 5000/15 = 334 units.
Contribution margin
Price − Variable Cost = Contribution Margin per unit. Each unit sold contributes this amount toward covering fixed costs.
