⚖️ What is Break-Even Analysis?
Break-even analysis determines the point where total revenue equals total costs — you're neither making nor losing money. It's essential for pricing decisions, business planning, and understanding your minimum viable sales volume.
📐 The Break-Even Formula
- Break-Even Units: Fixed Costs ÷ (Selling Price - Variable Cost)
- Contribution Margin: Selling Price - Variable Cost Per Unit
- Contribution Margin Ratio: Contribution Margin ÷ Selling Price
- Break-Even Revenue: Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution Margin Ratio
