Methodology
This is an estimate built from figures you entered. It is not a quote, a guaranteed cost or a financial projection.
What is included
- Required units = (fixed costs + target profit) ÷ contribution margin per unit
- Required revenue = required units × selling price
- Break-even units = fixed costs ÷ contribution margin per unit
What is excluded
- Tax, financing costs and owner drawings unless you included them in fixed costs
- Seasonality, discounting and returns
- Any assumption about demand — the target is arithmetic, not a forecast
Assumptions
- Price and variable cost per unit are constant across all units
- Fixed costs do not change as volume rises
- One product or a blended average unit
