FAQ
What is break-even analysis?
Break-even analysis identifies the minimum sales volume needed to cover all costs. Below break-even = loss. Above break-even = profit. Formula: Break-Even Units = Fixed Costs ÷ (Price − Variable Cost per Unit).
What is contribution margin?
Contribution margin = Selling Price − Variable Cost per Unit. It's the amount each unit "contributes" toward covering fixed costs and then profit. CM Ratio = CM ÷ Price (used to find break-even revenue).
What is margin of safety?
Margin of Safety = Current Sales − Break-Even Sales. It shows how much sales can decline before you hit a loss. A higher margin of safety gives more business resilience. Calculate as a percentage: MOS% = MOS ÷ Current Sales.
