To begin, enter your ‘Break-even sales’ per month: the amount your business must generate in revenue to break-even, so you should already know what your Break-even units (the number of units your business needs to sell per month to cover all costs of running the business), e.g., Break-even sales (£) = Break-even units to sell monthly x Selling price of each unit.
Then, enter your desired break-even sales you wish your business to be generating in each month, or the business actual sales.
Lastly, the given results can help you with the next calculator you could use ‘Profit Planning Calculator‘, as break-even covers costs but it does not include profit. In the profit planning calculator it goes beyond this break-even analysis -you can add the desired profit to fixed costs if needed. By following all these steps in the tools provided, you can determine exactly what is needed to sell to achieve your profit goals and to ensure your business is sustainable and profitable.
