The break-even formula
Break-even units = fixed costs ÷ (price − cost per unit). With 50,000 of monthly costs and 200 profit per sale, you need 250 sales a month.
Every sale above that number is profit. Every sale below it is a loss.
You can lower the break-even point by cutting fixed costs, raising prices or lowering unit costs.
