Break-Even Sales Calculator
Learn how many sales you need each month just to cover your fixed costs, such as apps, subscriptions, software and studio rent.
Who it's for: New and growing store owners setting monthly sales targets or checking whether a new subscription is worth it.
How to use it
- Add up your monthly fixed costs and enter the total.
- Enter your average selling price.
- Enter your average cost per unit.
- Read the break-even units and revenue.
Assumptions
Contribution margin = price − unit cost. Break-even units = fixed costs ÷ contribution margin, rounded up. Break-even revenue = units × price. If price is at or below cost you can never break even. Include fees in unit cost for a truer answer. Defaults are examples.
