How this calculator works
Core formula
break-even units = fixed costs / (selling price - variable cost)The tool calculates the contribution margin per unit first, then determines how many units are needed to cover fixed costs.
- If contribution margin is zero or negative, break-even is impossible.
- Revenue at break-even equals units multiplied by selling price.
