FAQ
What is the break-even point?
The sales volume where total revenue exactly covers fixed plus variable costs — below it you lose money, above it you profit.
What if price is below variable cost?
Every unit sold adds a loss, so no volume can break even; the calculator flags this instead of showing a number.
How do I lower my break-even point?
Raise price, cut per-unit cost, or reduce fixed overhead — each improves the contribution that absorbs fixed costs.
