Break-Even Units

Break-Even Revenue—
Contribution Margin / Unit—

Break-Even Planner helps you estimate the minimum number of units you need to sell before your business covers its costs. Enter your total fixed costs, selling price per unit, and variable cost per unit to calculate your break-even point instantly. The calculator shows the break-even units, break-even revenue, and contribution margin per unit. It is useful for product sellers, e-commerce stores, freelancers, small businesses, manufacturers, restaurants, and service providers who want to set better pricing and sales targets. Use this tool to understand whether your current price can cover operating costs, compare different pricing options, and plan the sales volume required to become profitable. Results are estimates and should be reviewed alongside your actual business expenses, taxes, returns, discounts, and payment fees.

How It Works

1

Enter your fixed costs

Add the total costs that stay the same regardless of sales volume, such as rent, salaries, software subscriptions, insurance, utilities, marketing retainers, or equipment payments.

2

Add your unit pricing and costs

Enter the amount you charge for one product or service unit, then enter the direct variable cost required to produce, buy, pack, deliver, or provide that unit.

3

View your break-even target

The planner calculates how many units you need to sell, the revenue required, and the contribution margin earned from each unit sold.

Frequently Asked Questions

The break-even point is the point at which total sales revenue equals total costs. At break-even, the business has not made a profit or a loss. Every unit sold after this point can contribute toward profit, before considering any additional costs.
Fixed costs are expenses that generally do not change with the number of units you sell during a period. Common examples include rent, employee salaries, accounting software, website hosting, insurance, office costs, and monthly equipment payments.
Variable costs change as you sell more units. Examples include product purchase cost, raw materials, packaging, shipping, delivery charges, sales commissions, marketplace fees, and payment processing fees.
If your selling price is equal to or lower than your variable cost, your contribution margin is zero or negative. In that situation, selling more units will not cover your fixed costs, so you need to increase the price, reduce direct costs, or change the business model.
Yes. For a service business, treat one unit as one project, client, booking, consultation, course enrollment, repair job, subscription, or billable hour. Include the direct cost required to deliver that service as the variable cost per unit.
